Accra, Oct. 15, GNA
– Ethiopian Airlines loyalty programme, ShebaMiles, has come up with a special
treat to honor its Blue or Silver status members.
Loyal customers, who
joined the Frequent Flyer Programme when it was launched in 1999, have been
awarded ShebaMiles Gold Status as part of the celebration of the 20th
Anniversary of ShebaMiles.
A statement issued
in Accra said the award, which would take effect as of 2020, was offered to 130
Blue and Silver status members.
It said Members, who
have already achieved ShebaMiles Gold and Platinum status would also have their
status extended until the end of 2020.
Currently,
ShebaMiles has four tier levels – namely Blue, Silver, Gold and Platinum –
which are achieved through the number of Status Miles or sectors flown annually
and grant corresponding privileges.
The statement said
through the loyalty programme, Members have been accumulating miles, which
entitle them to award tickets, upgrade awards and many other privileges.
“ShebaMiles also
allows Members to check their flight activities, upgrade their profiles, issue
award tickets and claim their missing miles at their fingertips using Ethiopian
Mobile App,” it added.
It said Members
could also collect miles from ASKY and Star Alliance Members as well as various
ground service providers.
It said it would be
recalled that ShebaMiles launched a ‘1-million-mile Reward’ promotion to offer
loyal members 100,000 miles for consecutive 10 months as the loyalty programme
marks its 20th Anniversary.
The statement said
discount awards, extra bonus miles and more privileges including from Ethiopian
partners all over the world were also on offer as part of the 20th Anniversary
