Etihad Guest, the frequent flyer program of Etihad Airways, starts a loyalty partnership with Revolut, a digital banking platform.
Etihad Guest and Revolut Partner to Boost Travel Rewards
In an exciting development for travel enthusiasts, Etihad Guest, the loyalty programme of Etihad Airways, has partnered with digital banking and financial services company, Revolut. This strategic collaboration allows millions of Revolut customers to convert their everyday spending into global travel rewards with Etihad Guest.
With this partnership, Revolut customers can now earn Etihad Guest Miles by transferring their Revolut RevPoints directly through the Revolut app. There is no minimum required to transfer points, making it accessible for all members. These transferred miles can be redeemed for a wide range of rewards, including flights within Etihad’s expanding global network (which recently added 27 new destinations), flight upgrades, and travel-related products.
This integration provides a seamless and digital-first way to boost loyalty balances, effectively enabling Revolut users to convert everyday spending into global travel rewards with Etihad Guest. The partnership aims to make travel more accessible to Etihad Guest members and Revolut customers.
Mark Potter, Managing Director of Etihad Guest, expressed his excitement about the partnership, stating, "We're thrilled to partner with Revolut and offer their customers the opportunity to earn Etihad Guest Miles. This collaboration strengthens our commitment to making travel more rewarding for our members."
Chris Guttridge, General Manager (Loyalty) at Revolut, commented on the partnership, saying, "We're delighted to partner with Etihad Guest to offer our customers a new and exciting way to redeem their RevPoints. This partnership further strengthens our Travel product suite and inspires a passion for travel among our customers."
Etihad Airways, the national carrier of the United Arab Emirates, is expanding its presence in North America, Europe, Africa, and Asia. The airline's rapid network expansion this year includes 27 new destinations such as Phnom Penh, Sumatra, and Hong Kong.
RevPoints can be redeemed for more than just Airline Miles, including eSIM, Lounges, Stays, and Experiences. Customers can also use their RevPoints to book flights and get seat upgrades across Etihad’s expanding global network. The partnership offers more ways for Etihad Guest members to earn miles internationally.
In a move that aligns with the growing trend of digital-first travel loyalty programmes, the partnership between Etihad and Revolut is set to revolutionise the way customers can earn and redeem travel rewards.
