By Akasa Air has rolled out its loyalty programme, Akasa Elevate, to mark the airline’s fourth anniversary of commercial operations.
The programme allows members to earn points on eligible flights and ancillary products and services, with passengers who have flown since April 1 this year able to join and claim points retrospectively.
Founder and CEO Vinay Dube said Akasa Elevate reflects the airline’s philosophy of putting customers first, describing the carrier’s journey so far as ‘extremely exciting.’
Dube said the loyalty programme is a natural extension of Akasa Air’s positioning as an ‘Experience-Led Carrier’ and a way of thanking its customers.
Akasa Elevate offers fast tier progression through eligible flights or spending, earnings on flights and ancillary products with extra rewards for direct bookings, and unlimited priority services as members advance through tiers.
Akasa Air began commercial operations on August 7, 2022, and has since expanded its domestic and international network, including routes to Gulf destinations such as Doha.
The airline said its rapid growth over four years has been built on a young, all-Boeing 737 MAX fleet and a focus on operational reliability across its expanding route network.
Akasa Air has positioned the loyalty programme as part of a broader push to deepen relationships with repeat customers as the airline’s route network and flight frequency have grown since its 2022 launch.
Akasa Air positions itself as an ‘Experience-Led Carrier,’ and Dube described the loyalty programme launch as a natural extension of that philosophy and a way of thanking customers.
The programme features fast tier progression based on either eligible flights or spending, earnings on flights and ancillary products, extra rewards for direct bookings, and unlimited priority services as members climb through membership tiers.
