Hilton HHonors,
Hilton's guest reward program, today announced a partnership with India’s largest private airline, Jet
Airways, and its Jet Privilege frequent flyer program. The relationship marks the
first alliance between the Hilton family of hotels and an airline frequent flyer
programme in India and comes two weeks after Hilton International launched a
strategic alliance with EIH Limited which saw eight hotels in India rebranded
under the Hilton badge.
The partnership allows HHonors members to Double Dip and earn both hotel
points and JPMiles at more than 2,500 HHonors hotels worldwide, including the
Hilton Towers in Mumbai and Trident Hilton hotels located in Bhubeneswar,
Gurgaon, Agra, Udaipur, Jaipur, Chennai and Cochin.
Similarly, Hilton is the first hotel partner to allow Jet Airways the 300,000 Jet
Privilege members to earn both hotel points and airline miles for the same stay.
The partnership is available to members staying at any of the HHonors hotels
worldwide, including Hilton, Conrad, Doubletree, Embassy Suites Hotels, Hampton Inn, Hampton Inn & Suites, Hilton Garden Inn, Hilton Grand
Vacations Club, Homewood Suites by Hilton and Scandic hotels.
JP Members will earn 500 JPMiles for their stays at Hilton, Conrad,
Doubletree, Embassy Suites Hotels, Hilton Garden Inn, Hilton Grand Vacations Club and 100 JPMiles at Hampton Inn, Hampton Inn & Suites, and
Scandic hotels.
“Business today takes many travellers abroad more frequently than ever,” said
Jeffrey Diskin, President and Chief Operating Officer of Hilton HHonors Worldwide. “Our relationship with Jet Airways gives our HHonors members the
opportunity to reap even more rewards for their travels.”
Speaking of the partnership, Mr. Wolfgang Prock-Schauer, Chief Executive Officer
of Jet Airways said, “Bringing world-class service and rewarding partnerships to
frequent travellers has always been Jet Airways’ mission. The new relationship
with Hilton HHonors only fortifies this mission of providing world-class service
both in the air and on the ground.” |
