FlyDubai airmiles scheme merges with Emirates

  • Passengers will be able to convert their airmiles
  • The merger of the two schemes is part of an ongoing partnership

DUBAI: FlyDubai is to adopt the Emirates airline Skywards loyalty program from the start of August, the Dubai Media office announced on Sunday.

Under the merger, passengers who have previously signed up to FlyDubai’s OPEN scheme will be able to transfer their frequent flyer miles to the Skywards program on a two-for-one basis.

The change will take effect from Aug. 1, 2018 when passengers will be able to collect points when traveling with either airline.
