In an exciting development for travel enthusiasts, Emirates Skywards, the prestigious loyalty program of Emirates and flydubai, has unveiled a strategic, multi-year partnership with Visa, the global leader in digital payments. This collaboration promises to revolutionize the way Emirates Skywards members experience travel, blending the world of rewards with cutting-edge digital payment solutions.

At the heart of this partnership is a shared vision to enhance the travel journey for Emirates Skywards members across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. By leveraging Visa's expertise in digital payments, Emirates Skywards aims to deepen its engagement with co-brand issuer partners, fostering innovation and personalization through advanced data-driven strategies.

The partnership was announced amidst the presence of His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman and Chief Executive Emirates Airline and Group, alongside senior executives from Emirates and Visa. Dr. Nejib Ben Khedher, Divisional Senior Vice President Emirates Skywards, and Dr. Saeeda Jaffar, Senior Vice President and Group Country Manager for GCC at Visa, both highlighted the transformative potential of this alliance for Emirates Skywards members.

This partnership signifies more than just a collaboration; it's a step towards enhancing the Emirates Skywards experience, offering members more personalized rewards and seamless travel opportunities. By integrating Visa's digital payment solutions, Emirates Skywards members can look forward to a more rewarding journey, filled with exclusive offers and accelerated Miles earning opportunities.

Emirates Skywards stands out not just for its size, with over 30 million members worldwide, but for its commitment to offering an unmatched loyalty experience. From earning Miles on flights and with an extensive network of global partners to spending Miles on an array of rewards including flight upgrades, hotel stays, and unique experiences, Emirates Skywards ensures every journey is rewarding.

Members can ascend through four tiers of membership—Blue, Silver, Gold, and Platinum—each offering a suite of exclusive benefits designed to make travel more enjoyable and rewarding. Additionally, the partnership with Visa introduces a new dimension of convenience and rewards, making every mile and every purchase count towards an elevated travel experience.

As Emirates Skywards continues to innovate and offer digital-first solutions, this partnership with Visa marks a significant milestone in providing members with a more integrated and rewarding travel and lifestyle ecosystem.
