WILMINGTON, Del., July 10, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Barclays and
Hawaiian Airlines today announced the launch of an enhanced
Hawaiian Airlines® World Elite Mastercard®
and Hawaiian Airlines® Business Mastercard®
that allow cardmembers to earn more miles faster and embark on
their next vacation sooner through a refreshed 3-2-1 rewards
structure. New cardmembers are eligible to receive 50,000 bonus
miles after meeting the spend threshold – enough for a round trip
between the U.S. West Coast and Hawai'i.
"As Hawaiʻi's destination carrier, we are excited to reward our
cardmembers with greater benefits that make it easier for them to
visit our islands while experiencing our award-winning Hawaiian
hospitality," said Peter Ingram,
president and CEO at Hawaiian Airlines.
The consumer card's 3-2-1 rewards structure simplifies vacation
savings for new World Elite cardmembers starting July 11, and for existing customers on their
cycle date after July 11. Consumer
cardmembers will earn 3x HawaiianMiles per dollar spent on Hawaiian
Airlines purchases; 2x on gas, dining and grocery store purchases;
and 1x on all other purchases, with no mileage caps. World Elite
consumer cardmembers will continue to enjoy current benefits such
as one free checked bag for eligible bags on Hawaiian
Airlines-operated flights, no foreign transaction fees,
$100 annual companion discount and
low introductory APR on balance transfers, as well as all the World
Elite Mastercard benefits.
"Whether a frequent flyer to the Hawaiian Islands or saving for
a once-in-a-lifetime trip, our cards are tailored toward rewarding
cardmembers with meaningful benefits," said Dan Dougherty, managing director of airline
partnerships, Barclays. "By allowing cardmembers to earn miles
faster as well as access companion discounts and mile sharing with
friends and family, we're un-complicating travel to Hawai'i and
making dream vacations a reality."
To mark the credit card's relaunch and celebrate the increased
dining and grocery rewards, the Hawaiian Airlines World Elite
Mastercard program, supported by Barclays, Hawaiian Airlines,
Mastercard and Bank of Hawaii,
donated $100,000 to support Hawaiʻi's
local agriculture industry. The funds will be shared by four
nonprofit local organizations to advance sustainable agriculture
and conservation in the islands.
