Aer Lingus teams up with Uber to reward AerClub members with Avios on every journey

#Traveltradetogether

Aer Lingus’ AerClub members can now collect Avios on every journey they take using the Uber app, by simply linking their AerClub and Uber accounts.

From today, members of the airline’s loyalty programme will collect 1 Avios for every €1 spent on any journey taken on the Uber app in Ireland and the UK. To celebrate the new partnership, AerClub members who link their AerClub and Uber accounts via the Uber app and complete a journey before July 31st will receive 500 bonus Avios.

Avios is the reward currency of AerClub and can be collected by flying worldwide and through everyday spending with hundreds of retail partners. Whether you’re catching a flight or heading home after an adventure, this partnership with Uber ensures members can now also boost their balances on every journey they take with Uber in Ireland and also in the UK.

Demand for Uber rides has increased by a massive 175% compared to last year, proving that more and more people are choosing convenience on the go. With operations now spanning every city in the Republic of Ireland, this convenient collaboration with Aer Lingus ensures that AerClub members can seamlessly collect Avios on the go.

Users simply need to link their AerClub and Uber accounts, by entering their details into the Uber app in the settings section. Avios will automatically appear in each member’s account after every Uber ride.

From collecting Avios on the road with Uber to taking off in the skies, AerClub members can transform their Avios into unforgettable travel experiences. By redeeming Avios on Reward Flights, exclusive seats reserved for loyalty club members, they can turn everyday journeys into exciting adventures. By booking through the AerClub Reward Platform, AerClub members can avail of a flight from Dublin to Paris for just 4,000 Avios (one-way) and just pay the taxes fees and charges.

Susanne Carberry, Chief Customer Officer, Aer Lingus, said: “At Aer Lingus, we’re dedicated to making AerClub as rewarding as possible for our 3 million members. Our new partnership with Uber offers yet another seamless way to collect Avios through everyday spending. Whether it’s a journey to the airport or a convenient trip across town to a meeting, every journey booked through the Uber app earns Avios—bringing members closer to flights, upgrades, and exclusive travel extras.”

Kieran Harte, Head of Ireland, Uber added: “With this exciting collaboration, we can help users of the Uber app collect Avios with every ride. Whether you’re commuting to work with Uber or exploring a new city, every ride brings you closer to a dream destination with Aer Lingus.”

Rob McDonald, Chief Commercial Officer, IAG Loyalty added: “It’s fantastic to be able to expand our existing partnership with Uber, offering AerClub members another way to collect Avios as part of their every day. This builds on our existing partnership with Uber in the UK, meaning both AerClub and British Airways Club members can now benefit from earning Avios with Uber seamlessly across Ireland and the UK.”
