HONOLULU, April 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Hawaiian
Airlines is offering its loyalty members a lifetime of flexibility
to earn, save and redeem HawaiianMiles by eliminating its
mileage expiration. In celebration, Hawai'i's hometown carrier is
inviting travelers to participate in an "Endless Hawai'i"
sweepstakes for a chance to win 1 million HawaiianMiles* – the
equivalent of 16 roundtrip flights between the U.S. mainland and
Hawai'i.**
Effective today, HawaiianMiles members no longer have to worry
about posting account activity within 18 months to preserve their
miles – the latest enhancement Hawaiian has made to
its frequent flyer program to offer the greatest value
for anyone traveling to, from and within the Hawaiian Islands.
"Removing mileage expiration is one of many changes we're making
to better serve our guests and members. The hard times we have gone
through as an airline have challenged us to ask ourselves how we
can be an even better airline, for our guests, our employees and
our communities," Avi Mannis, senior
vice president of marketing, wrote in an email to HawaiianMiles
members. "We are committed to emerging from this crisis a stronger
airline, even more deeply committed to guests and our purpose of
connecting people with aloha."
Hawaiian first paused HawaiianMiles expiration in March 2020 (through Dec.
31, 2020) to assist members unable to travel due to the
COVID-19 pandemic and government travel restrictions. The carrier
later eliminated change fees, offered HawaiianMiles members the
ability to redeem miles for a pre-travel COVID-19 test, and
made it easier to reach Pualani
Gold or Pualani Platinum status by cutting qualifications
requirements in half.
The HawaiianMiles program, which was introduced in 1998, is
free for members to join. Miles can be earned for every mile flown
with Hawaiian Airlines, and by flying with the carrier's designated
partner airlines, making purchases with a Hawaiian
Airlines® World Elite Mastercard® or shopping
at partner merchants. Miles can be redeemed for travel, food,
shopping and more, or turned into a charitable donation via the
HawaiianMiles giving program.

Airlines "Endless Hawai'i"
