Your ultimate travel companion: The Citi PremierMiles card

-

Traveling for business or pleasure? Seasoned traveler or not, the best way to plan your trip is to make a list of things you’ll need away from home. When it comes to choosing which credit card to take with you, you can’t go wrong with the new Citi PremierMiles.

Citi, the world’s largest provider of credit cards, designed its latest plastic currency to give travelers the ultimate travel experience. With a low conversion rate of one mile for every P45 spent, Citi PremierMiles will help you get that free trip, companion ticket, or complimentary upgrade faster.

“Citi PremierMiles is available in Gold and Platinum. When spending abroad, Platinum cardholders earn double miles, which means the conversion rate is even lower at only P22.50 for every mile,” explained Bea Tan, Citi’s Cards Business Director.

Another great reason to own and use Citi PremierMiles is the limited offer from June 15 to August 31, 2008. Gold and Platinum cardholders will earn two Citi PremierMiles for every P45 spent, while Platinum cardholders who use it abroad will earn three Citi PremierMiles for every P45 charged to their card. With P15 to 1 mile – that’s an unbeatable offer!

“Plus, the miles you earn never expire so you have the freedom to rack up your miles and use it when you want to,” added Tan.

What’s more, cardholders can choose from as many as five frequent flyer partners when redeeming their travel reward: Cathay Pacific’s Asia Miles, Singapore Airlines’ KrisFlyer, Philippine Airlines’ Mabuhay Miles, Thai Airways’ Royal Orchid Plus and NorthWest Airlines’ WorldPerks. Through alliances with Oneworld, SkyTeam, and Star Alliance, Citi PremierMiles cardholders can redeem from more than 70 airlines.

Whether traveling for business or leisure, starting Sept. 1, 2008 Citi PremierMiles cardholders can enjoy complimentary access to NorthWest Airlines WorldClubs private lounge at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 1. Cardholders only need to present their Citi PremierMiles to gain entry. Platinum cardholders can bring along one companion for free.

Of course, every traveler knows the importance of travel insurance and other travel-related protection when flying. Citi PremierMiles offers cardholders free travel accident protection as much as P10 million when they charge their travel ticket to their card. Their travel accident coverage starts from point of departure until point of arrival.

For missed or delayed flights, delayed luggage or worse, lost luggage, which is sure to put off even the most seasoned of travelers, Citi PremierMiles offers travel inconvenience benefits when travel tickets are paid using the card. You can claim as much as P10,000 if you are traveling alone and your luggage is delayed for six hours from your arrival, or P20,000 if you are traveling with your family. If your luggage is lost and still not found after 24 hours, you can be entitled to as much as P30,000 if you are traveling solo, or P60,000, when with family.

So before you take off on your next travel adventure, get yourself a Citi PremierMiles card. Apply now at 423-3000 or visit www.citibank.com.ph.
