Points International Ltd. expanded its partnership with Alaska Airlines to enable Mileage Plan members to redeem their miles for elite status. By leveraging Points’ Loyalty Commerce Platform, Alaska Airlines is enhancing its existing Elite Qualifying Miles promotion. Now, members who are close but short of their annual qualifying requirements can use their hard-earned miles to maintain or purchase higher elite status. The expanded partnership is ultimately providing Mileage Plan members more ways to use their miles and enjoy elite benefits when flying Alaska Airlines.
