Alternative Airlines Loyalty Scheme
What is a loyalty scheme?
A loyalty programme or loyalty scheme is a business incentive to encourage repeat customers. Frequent customers may then build up points that they can spend on rewards and upgrades such as free flights, upgraded cabin classes or free lounge access.
What is a Frequent Flyer Programme?
Frequent Flyer Programmes are just like loyalty schemes but specifically for airlines. There are lots of airlines that offer these incentive programs as a way for you to collect points and spend them on rewards and upgrades as mentioned before. The more frequently you fly and the longer the distances, the more miles and points you'll build up to then spend on rewards.
Which airlines offer Frequent Flyer Programs?
Delta: SkyMiles
SkyMiles is Delta's frequent flyer programme. The programme allows frequent travellers to earn points per miles to spend on any Delta Airline flight, rewards and upgrades, Delta Vacations packages or premium drinks if you visit the Sky Club. The miles never expire so there's plenty of time to book that dream flight!
American Airlines: AAdvantage
American Airlines is said to have one of the best frequent flyer programmes among the airlines that offer them. One of the key bonuses of AAdvantage is that you can earn miles not just on American Airlines flights but also on Oneworld and a huge variety of other airlines that participate. Miles can be spent on upgrades, car rentals, hotels and up to 1,100 destinations worldwide.
British Airways: Executive Club

The airlines' points are recognised as Avios, points which you can earn to spend on rewards such as cool experiences, flight upgrades, hotels and reward flights.

How can I check my frequent flyer points?
With most airlines, frequent flyer points can be checked in the account that you would've set up to join the frequent flyer programme. Points can be seen adding up and they may even display what rewards you are eligible for at that point in time.

Most, if not all frequent flyer programmes are free to join and do not require any set-up fees. This is great as it's an easy way to benefit from free flights and free upgrades in the future.
