Can you brief about the Emirates Business Rewards programme?
Emirates Business Rewards is our corporate loyalty programme which is open to organisations of all sizes around the world. The organisation earn Business Rewards points, whenever its employees or guests travellers fly on Emirates, which can then be spent on Reward flights and upgrades. Individuals also earn Skywards Miles on the same flight, if they are an Emirates Skywards member.

Who is eligible for it and what benefits does it have? Emirates Business Rewards is open to any organisation but is designed to offer benefits to small and medium-sized organisations that don’t have a corporate travel agreement with Emirates. It can also be used to complement any travel agreements that may be in place. Members will earn 1 Emirates Business Rewards Point for every USD 1 spent on the base fare plus fuel surcharge, which can be spent on future flights or upgrades on Emirates.

How is this scheme important to the business traveller? The Emirates Business Rewards programme is about improving the way of rewarding the companies that choose Emirates for corporate travel. The programme helps our industry customers to get more value from their business travel – right across the spectrum of small businesses and large corporations.
