AER Lingus has announced a new partnership with a popular US-based taxi app.
Irish passengers can now collect Avios points on every journey they take using the Uber app.
Members of the Aer Club will collect 1 Avios for every €1 spent on any trips taken on the Uber app in Ireland and the United Kingdom.
And for those who link their AerClub and Uber accounts via the Uber app and complete a journey before July 31 will receive a whopping 500 bonus Avios.
This can be done by entering their details into the Uber app in the settings section.
Once it is set up, Avios will automatically appear in each member’s account after every Uber Ride in Ireland and the United Kingdom – it also includes trains, coaches, boats and two-wheels in the UK.
Avios is the reward currency of Aer Lingus‘ AerClub and can be collected by flying worldwide and through everyday spending with hundreds of retail partners.
And their membership can avail themselves of major perks with the airline, such as fast track, priority boarding and lounge access.
Passengers can also have a choice of collecting Avios with the British Airways Club, which can be done by selecting your Earning Partner in the Uber app.
With the points collected, members can transform them into an unforgettable travel experience and they can reserve exclusive seats to make it even better.
Members can take a one-way flight from Dublin to Paris for just 4,000 Avios and pay the taxes, fees, and charges.
The collaboration with Uber guarantees that users may improve their balances on every trip they take with Uber, whether they’re catching a flight or returning home after an excursion.
Compared to last year, the demand for Uber rides has skyrocketed by 175 per cent, demonstrating that more and more individuals opt for convenience when they’re on the go.
‘SEAMLESS WAY TO COLLECT’
Talking about the launch of the new partnership, Chief Customer Officer of Aer Lingus, Susanne Carberry, said: “At Aer Lingus, we’re dedicated to making AerClub as rewarding as possible for our 3 million members.
“Our new partnership with Uber offers yet another seamless way to collect Avios through everyday spending.
“Whether it’s a journey to the airport or a convenient trip across town to a meeting, every journey booked through the Uber app earns Avios—bringing members closer to flights, upgrades, and exclusive travel extras.”
Head of Ireland for Uber, Kieran Harte added: “With this exciting collaboration, we can help users of the Uber app collect Avios with every ride.
“Whether you’re commuting to work with Uber or exploring a new city, every ride brings you closer to a dream destination with Aer Lingus.”
Chief Commercial Officer for IAG Loyalty, Rob McDonald said: “It’s fantastic to be able to expand our existing partnership with Uber, offering AerClub members another way to collect Avios as part of their every day.
“This builds on our existing partnership with Uber in the UK, meaning both AerClub and British Airways Club members can now benefit from earning Avios with Uber seamlessly across Ireland and the UK.”
