Making up for lost travel with airasia rewards

Finally, we can all scratch that travelling itch again. Days of travel restrictions are (nearly) over, and it’s time to put all of your loyalty points to good use! 

Did you know that the airasia Super App has a loyalty programme called airasia rewards? (If you don’t, where have you been!) You can earn and spend your airasia points through airasia rewards. 

We know it might have been a while since you last made travel plans by redeeming your loyalty points - so we are here to share some tips on how you can up your revenge travel game with airasia points! 

Here are our 3 top tips: 

Tip #1: Get to know your membership status

Becoming an airasia member means enjoying all the perks of airasia rewards! In airasia rewards, there are four tiers in the programme: Red, Gold, Platinum, & Black. 

For Red members who are just starting, you can move up quickly to other tiers simply by meeting the ‘Qualifying Flown Sectors,’ each offering a wide range of rewards and privileges. Once you have accumulated the required Qualifying Flown Sectors within the past 12 months, get ready to be upgraded automatically the following month. 

Travel in style and enjoy a  hassle-free journey when you become a Platinum member. You’ll also unlock special privileges like Xpress Baggage, Check-In, and Boarding - which means more savings, and no queues at the airport (yay to more shopping time at the airport!). airasia members can also collect points up to 12 times faster and quicker to redeem their next holiday.

Note: Each airasia membership status will be reviewed at the end of the calendar year. The review will be based on your Qualifying Flown Sectors within the calendar year.

Tip #2: Get rewarded twice and travel faster with airasia credit card

Get rewarded twice as fast and travel more often as an airasia member! How can you do that? Simple, the airasia credit card can fast track your points earn rate when you: 

  1. Use it to spend with hundreds of airasia rewards global partners

  2. Use it to top up any of your e-wallets with the airasia credit card, or spend on dining, travel, shopping, and more

Another great way for you to earn airasia points faster is by setting your airasia credit card as your preferred mode of payment. This way, your payment process becomes easier and more convenient as well. 

As long as you meet the minimum spend of the airasia credit card,  you will be able to keep your membership status longer.

Your airasia membership status will be reviewed on your airasia credit card's anniversary month. In order to continue enjoying the benefit of Platinum status, you must meet the relevant Bank’s and Airline’s minimum spend criteria or accumulate a minimum of 24 Qualifying Flown Sectors.

Tip #3: Get ready to redeem your airasia points

Tips #1 and #2 are all about setting you up to earn airasia points. Now, let us give you tips on how you can maximise spending them!
