Airlines (frequent flyer programs)

Airlines' frequent flyer programs reward loyal customers by providing points or miles for each flight or related activities. These points can be accumulated and redeemed for benefits such as free flights, seat upgrades, lounge access, or other travel perks. Members often earn more points through higher fares, larger airlines alliances, or credit card collaborations. The goal is to incentivize repeat business, foster customer loyalty, and enhance the travel experience. Membership tiers may offer additional privileges, encouraging travelers to fly more frequently with the same airline or alliance for greater rewards.
