OREANDA-NEWS. November 06, 2014. S7 Airlines, a member of the oneworld® global aviation alliance®, offers a new service for the S7 Priority frequent flyer programme members. Now they can purchase award tickets on the airline website and pay for the purchase using miles from their account.

In order to purchase an award ticket, the same as during the purchase of ordinary air tickets, programme members should enter the route, flight dates and number of passengers in the search box on the main page, and then choose miles as currency. In search results the air ticket cost will be shown in miles, and also taxes and charges payable in roubles. Miles will be automatically deducted from the account of the S7 Priority member.

The member of the S7 Priority programme can purchase award tickets, if he has enough miles on his account, and if he being the programme member took at least one S7 Airlines flight within the current or previous year purchased at a fare eligible for mileage accrual.

The award ticket may be issued not only in the name of the member, but in the name of any other passenger. During each calendar year award tickets may be issued in the name of other persons no more than 10 times.
