Jet Airways and SWISS (Swiss International Air Lines) have entered into a reciprocal Frequent Flyer Programme alliance which will benefit frequent flyers of both airlines. Effective July 15, 2006, all Jet Privilege members will be able to accrue and redeem JPMiles on all SWISS operated flights. This partnership will also allow members of Miles & More Frequent Flyer programme (managed by Lufthansa), of which SWISS is a fully integrated partner, to earn and burn Miles & More miles on Jet Airways.

The new partnership aims to serve the frequent travelers of both airlines by way of extending the opportunity of earning frequent flyer miles while traveling across the network of both airlines. So while Jet Privilege members can enjoy the convenience and luxury of SWISS' global connectivity to 69 of their worldwide destinations; Members of Miles & More can also accrue and redeem miles on all Jet Airways flights, availing of better connectivity and excellence in service across Jet Airways' 48 domestic and international destinations.  

As a special launch promotion exclusively for Jet Privilege members, from July 15 - August 15, 2006, all Jet Privilege members on qualifying SWISS flights will earn double JPMiles on the basis of their class of travel on SWISS.

Commenting on the partnership, Mr. Wolfgang Prock-Schauer, Chief Executive Officer, Jet Airways said, "At Jet Airways it has been our constant endeavor to provide our travelers with high value propositions. Our Frequent Flyer Programme partnership with SWISS will allow Jet Privilege members more mileage accrual and redemption opportunities. Moreover, with Switzerland increasingly becoming a favoured holiday destination, we are confident that Jet Privilege members will benefit from the synergies created by this partnership."

Mr. Marcel Biedermann, Vice President Intercontinental Markets, Swiss International Air Lines said "India is a very strategic and important market for us and we are happy to enter into this frequent flyer partnership with India's foremost airline. While Jet Privilege members can now avail of SWISS' worldwide connectivity, our customers will benefit greatly from Jet Airways' international & domestic network."
