Kingfisher Airlines announces alliance with Hilton HHonors

Kingfisher Airlines has announced its alliance with Hilton HHonors, a guest rewards programme for the more than 3000 Hilton Family Hotels worldwide. The new alliance allows members of Kingfisher Airlines’ ‘King Club’ frequent flyer programme to earn both King Miles and HHonors points when they stay at the Hilton Family of hotels. Hilton HHonors is the only guest rewards programme in the world that lets members earn both, hotel points and airline miles for the same stay and redeem points for free nights with No Blackout Dates.

“We are constantly looking for ways to provide our members with options,” said Adam Burke, Senior Vice President - Customer Loyalty, Hilton Hotels Corporation. King Club and Hilton HHonors members can earn Points and Miles in either of the following ways: Points and Variable Miles - earn 10 HHonors points and 1 King Mile for every eligible dollar charged to room at all Hilton Family hotels; Points and Fixed Miles - Members regularly earn 10 HHonors points for every eligible dollar charged to room and 500 King Miles per stay (100 miles at Hampton and Homewood).

Since earning Points and Variable Miles can maximise points and King Miles during longer stays and Points and Fixed Miles may offer more King Miles during shorter stays, HHonors members have the opportunity to change their earnings style with every stay.

In order to start earning King Miles and HHonors points, consumers can enrol in Hilton HHonors at Hilton HHonors.com. Hilton HHonors members need to then sign into their HHonors account and select Kingfisher Airlines as their preferred airline partner and ensure that they present their King Club membership card at the time of check-in.

In addition to earning Points and King Miles, King Club members who are also HHonors members can now convert their HHonors points into King Miles. For every 10000 Hilton HHonors points, King Club members can make an exchange for 1000 King Miles. Every additional or subsequent conversion has to be in multiples of 10000 Hilton HHonors points. In order to complete an exchange, members can contact the Hilton HHonors Customer Service Centre.
