American Express offering 30,000 JPMiles signup bonus for Jet Airways co-branded credit card

Last year, when American Express and Jet Airways launched their co-branded Jet-Airways American Express Credit Card, they offered a special sign-up bonus of 10,000 JPMiles over and above the welcome gift of 20,000 JPMiles which is the standard on-going offer. However, the sign-up bonus was only available to those who paid the INR 10,000 + taxes as first year fees, hence, I chose to pay the fee in spite of being a JetPrivilege Platinum member and eligible for the credit card free of cost. I was getting miles at INR 0.33 per JPmile, and it was hard to beat that value. On my last Jet Airways flight earlier this week, I saw flyers around the cabin talking about the special…

Jet Airways activation bonuses posting

A while back I had mentioned that Jet Airways had sent some members emails that they would be getting 3x miles if they flew Jet Airways or JetKonnect again in the near future. Members receiving the promotion were preregistered in the promotion, and the miles were going to credit automatically. This set of people who were sent the emails were those who hadn’t travelled with Jet Airways in a while. I wasn’t aware my brother on that list, they sure did put him on that list. And the activation miles posted along with the flight miles for the said flight. So, in case you flew a Jet Airways flight recently, after a long while, say 12 months or so, you…

JetPrivilege offering 2,500 miles for new accounts

JetPrivilege conducts membership drives from time to time to enrol new members, and this is one more of those, where a new member would get 2,500 miles to enrol with the JetPrivilege program. While the duration of the promotion is unspecified, only new members should enrol using this link, because existing accounts won’t get any bonus miles to enrol again, and opening a new account is useless for you since you’re allowed only one JP account under the terms of the program. Mileage credits are usually instantaneous, or within a few hours. So, if you intend to be crediting miles to JetPrivilege for flights on Jet Airways or other partner carriers, this may be a good deal to get started.…

Jet Airways: convert hotel points to JP Miles with 20% bonus

Apart from offering a bonus on conversion of your credit card reward points to Jet Airways JP Miles, there is also another recently launched promotion from 9W, where you could convert your hotel points from 9 different hotel chains to JP Miles. As per the promotion, which is valid between 20 July 2013 and 31 August 2013, if you converted your hotel points into 9W miles as per the following ratio, you’d stand to gain an extra 20% bonus from Jet Airways. However, my personal view is that this is not exactly a great promotion. Hey, for 50,000 Club Carlson points, I could be getting a good one night stay at a hotel in Europe in stead of 5000 JPMiles…
