Detroit Metro Airport Unveils DTW Rewards: Earn More Than Just Miles
Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW), one of the United States' busiest air travel hubs, has launched an innovative loyalty program that promises to enhance the travel experience for its visitors. Named DTW Rewards, this complimentary program is a gateway for members to earn points through purchases at DTW and over 100 other participating airports nationwide, which can be redeemed for cashback, gift cards, and airline miles.
The DTW Rewards program is straightforward and accessible, requiring no membership fee. Travelers can sign up online at DTWRewards.com or via airport WiFi. By linking their credit or debit card accounts, members earn points on transactions made not only at DTW but also at a network of over 100 airports, including shopping and dining venues. The redemption options are varied, including Visa gift cards, retail gift cards from major brands like Walmart, Dunkin, Amazon, and Delta Air Lines, and airline miles with Alaska Airlines.
Wayne County Airport Authority CEO, Chad Newton, highlights the benefits, stating, "DTW Rewards will give our customers another reason to enjoy our nearly 100 shops and restaurants at the number one ranked mega airport in North America. We pride ourselves on delivering an excellent customer experience at DTW. This program will provide us with data to help make our airport even better."
Open to travelers, airport employees, and non-ticketed visitors through the Destination Pass program, DTW Rewards extends the opportunity to earn points to a wide audience. The program also encourages member engagement through referral bonuses, rewarding members with additional points for each new sign-up.
This initiative places DTW among a growing number of airports worldwide adopting loyalty programs to improve customer experiences and gather valuable feedback. Partnering with Thanks Again's GlidePathCX, DTW aims to use real-time insights and customer feedback to continually enhance the passenger experience.
With the ability to earn points on a variety of expenditures, including parking fees at select airports, DTW Rewards stands out as a comprehensive program designed to reward travelers for their loyalty. Marc E. Ellis, CEO of GlidePathCX, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, "We are excited to partner with Detroit Metro Airport to measurably boost the passenger experience using actual acquired insights and data. We give the passenger a voice that benefits both the Detroit Metro Airport and its loyal customers."
As airports like DTW innovate to meet and exceed passenger expectations, programs like DTW Rewards represent a significant step forward in redefining the travel experience, making every journey through the airport more rewarding.
