RIYADH: The UAE’s Emirates Skywards has partnered with Jet2.com, allowing members to redeem flight rewards to more than 75 destinations across the UK airline’s leisure network.
Emirates and flydubai’s loyalty program is expanding its UK portfolio, giving its 4 million members more opportunities, rewards, and travel options, according to a statement.
This supports the UAE’s goal of becoming the world’s leading aviation hub by 2035, backed by major infrastructure investment, expanded sustainable aviation fuel production, and workforce development, as well as digital transformation and a strong regulatory framework.
It also aligns well with the UAE’s tourism aim of making it a top global destination, targeting 40 million hotel guests by 2031 under the national UAE Tourism Strategy 2031, aiming for 450 billion dirhams ($122 billion) in gross domestic product contribution and 100 billion dirhams in investments.
“The UK is one of our top markets and we’re pleased to expand our portfolio to offer millions of members a chance to redeem flight rewards on popular holiday destinations served by Jet2.com. In addition to flight tickets, members can also redeem Miles for meals, extra baggage allowance, preferred seat selection, and more — making it possible to enjoy the perfect start to a holiday, fully covered by Skywards Miles,” said Divisional Senior Vice President Emirates Skywards Nejib Ben Khedher.
