Frequent Flyer Program with Air India

Air India has Flying return frequent flyer prgram which started in September 2009. This program entitles you to earn miles when you travel on Air India flights, you basically earn miles, and number of miles earned depends on the sector and the type of ticket you pruchased for that flight. You can then accumulate these points and redeem them for a free flight ticket at Air India. This program with Air India is called Flying Returns.

The introduction of this program from the official website as of today is as follows:

As a member, you can earn mileage points when you fly Air India on eligible fare paying tickets, and redeem them for award travel faster than most programmes. On higher fares, such as full fare economy, and on Business/First Class, you earn bonus miles, and clock mileage points faster.
You can even earn and redeem mileage points on airline partners, and earn miles on selected non airline partners.

  • You can accrue miles on all fare-paying tickets, and earn miles depending on the booking class. On full-fare Economy tickets, and on Business/First Class fares, you earn bonus miles.

  • You can pool your miles with those of your spouse to avail of free tickets, provided your spouse is also a member of Flying Returns.

  • Award tickets may be issued for the member or any other person nominated by the member.
