The national airline of Saudi Arabia, Saudia, has introduced a new smart feature called ‘Cash Plus Miles’, designed to make flight ticket bookings more flexible and convenient for its customers.
💡 What is ‘Cash Plus Miles’?
- It allows passengers to combine cash and frequent flyer miles to book their flight tickets.
- Offered through Saudia’s frequent flyer program – Alfursan.
- Customers can now partially pay with miles and cover the remaining balance using cash, debit, or credit card.
🎯 Key Benefits:
- ✅ Greater Flexibility – No need to wait until you have enough miles to book a full ticket.
- ✅ User-Friendly Booking – Available via Saudia website, app, or official booking counters.
- ✅ Global Access – Can be used for domestic and international flights.
- ✅ Better Utilization of Miles – Especially useful for passengers with unused or low mile balances.
📱 How to Use:
- Log in to your Alfursan account.
- Search for flights as usual.
- Choose ‘Cash + Miles’ option during payment.
- Decide how many miles you want to redeem.
- Pay the rest using your preferred method.
🌍 Why It Matters:
This initiative is part of Saudia’s broader push toward digital transformation and passenger experience enhancement. As Saudi Arabia boosts its global connectivity goals (especially under Vision 2030), such services aim to attract more international travelers and improve customer loyalty.
