Qantas, Accor strengthen loyalty partnership
Qantas and hospitality giant Accor have strengthened their loyalty partnership offering members simultaneous earning opportunities for both programs.
A first for an airline and hospitality group in the Asia Pacific region, members of both programs can earn rewards of both Qantas Points and ALL – Accor Live Limitless Reward Points when making flight or hotel bookings.
The partnership offers more opportunities to redeem points as well as exclusive benefits for elite members.
It is scheduled to launch in mid-2021.
"From next year, eligible members of Qantas’ and Accor’s loyalty programs will earn twice when they fly or stay with the two brands. This is an entirely new way to recognise the loyalty of our frequent flyers which we know will be very popular," said Qantas Loyalty CEO Olivia Wirth.
Members of each loyalty program will receive details early next year.
Qantas members are already able to convert their ALL – Accor Live Limitless Reward points to Qantas Points at one ALL – Accor Live Limitless Reward Point per one Qantas Point.
