Emirates Skywards partners with Jet2 to offer flight rewards

Airlines Involved:
Emirates Skywards (loyalty program of Emirates & flydubai) + Jet2.com (UK’s third-largest airline).

Destinations Covered:
Over 500 routes to 75+ leisure destinations across Europe, the Mediterranean, Canary Islands, and North Africa.

Redemption Options:
- Use Skywards Miles to book Jet2 flights.
- Redeem Miles for optional extras like baggage and sports equipment.

UK Focus:
With 4 million UK members, Emirates Skywards strengthens its position in its largest market by offering more affordable leisure travel opportunities.

Benefits for Travelers
- More Choice: Members can now access Jet2’s extensive leisure network, including sun-soaked beach holidays, city breaks, and ski trips.
- Flexibility: Miles can be used for both flights and add-ons, making travel more customizable.
- Convenience: Jet2 operates from 13 UK airports, giving Skywards members multiple departure points.

Things to Keep in Mind
- Availability: Redemption seats on Jet2 may be limited during peak travel seasons.
- Value of Miles: The redemption rate may vary; sometimes combining Cash + Miles could be more cost-effective.
- Extras: While baggage and sports equipment can be redeemed with Miles, other Jet2 services (like in-flight meals) may not be included.

👉 This partnership is especially valuable for UK-based Skywards members who want to use their Miles for short-haul leisure trips, complementing Emirates’ long-haul network.
