The finnish airline Finnair has a great frequent flyer program in place named Finnair Plus. Finnair Plus not only allows for the usual mile for mile earning potential of frequent fliers; it also gives members the ability to redeem points earned with expenditures of contracting bank card issuers.
Some partners offer higher loyalty award amounts than others and this is where an often updated award guide comes in. A definite advantage to Finnairs Loyalty Program is its partnership with Oneworld, a conglomerate of some of the worlds best and far reaching destination airlines in the world. Oneworlds award chart is your award chart with Finnair Pluss membership.
Finnair Plus offers several membership levels in its frequent flyer program based on miles earned. After earning forty thousand points loyalty program members reach Silver Level which allows one to receive special perks above non-silver earners. For example: a 10% increase in points earned on flights and access to the Finnair Lounge Service. The exclusive Gold Level allows members confirmed business class seating just two days before flights and two free upgrades a year, oh and 15% extra points on purchases. And finally, the top Finnair Plus Loyalty Program level is the Platinum Level in which members get twenty five percent bonus points in Finnair flights as well as once a year free upgrades. |
