AIRLINE LOYALTY PROGRAMME

Are you a Mabuhay Miles member? Do you know that Miles shall NO longer expire for active members. Active members are those with the following valid Mabuhay Miles activities, within two (2) consecutive years, starting 01 January 2014 - 31 December 2015.

To earn 100% Mabuhay Miles, you need to book the Regular Economy fare which is a little expensive compared to the Budget Economy fare due to difference in benefits. However, the ticket is Refundable and inclusive of 20kls Baggage Allowance.  

Non-frequent Travelers would still be earning miles simply by making non-flight transactions. You could also purchase miles to add to your account and redeem your award ticket sooner. 

DO NOT forget to present your Mabuhay Miles ID at the Check-in Counter! 

As I mentioned in my Philippines Budget Airlines 101 post, you need to sign-up as a GetGo member to earn points for booked flights with Cebu Pacific Air. Unlike Mabuhay Miles, there's no need to wait until you've accumulated 1,000 points to receive the physical card. You actually need to start redeeming as soon as you've accumulated enough points for since your account will expire if you do not have at least one (1) qualified earn activity for the past 12 consecutive months. So, make sure to check GetGo on Twitter and Facebook for Seat Sale.

There's a one-time membership fee of P150 upon registration, the physical card will then be delivered to your preferred address in the Philippines within 20 business days. As stated on their official website, they do not deliver the card to an overseas address for the time being but you may provide a local address of someone you know for the card to be delivered to. Check Air21 website to ensure the address is within the courier's service areas.

Non-frequent Travelers would still be earning points by making non-flight transactions with Cebu Pacific Partners. You will earn 1 point for every P5 spent on qualified flight with Cebu Pacific Air or qualifying purchase transaction with any of their partners. 

I have never flown with Air Asia yet but I earned Big Points by signing-up with YouGov(partner), answered surveys sent to me by email and Refer-A-Friend to sign-up. If you want to do the same, kindly remind your friend/s to complete at least six surveys (excluding the initial profile survey) for you to receive up to 200 points in survey credit. Clink link below to start earning points ASAP!
