- Last Thoughts: Cathay’s New Programme
One of the biggest sources of confusion regarding the new Cathay programme is the terminology. So, here’s a brief glossary before I get into the nitty-gritty of the programme. Cathay (The Lifestyle Brand): The name of the new “lifestyle brand” from Cathay Pacific, which is also the name of its loyalty programme. The new Cathay brand dabbles in ever...
As mentioned above, Asia Miles are redeemable miles that members earn when flying with Cathay Pacific, oneworld Alliance members, and select partner airlines. Passengers booked on HKExpress flights via a Cathay Pacific codeshare will also earn Asia Miles. Additionally, you can earn Asia Miles through credit card spending (including via Cathay’s co-...
To get elite status, you’ll need to earn Status Points, which members primarily receive by flying with Cathay Pacific and oneworld alliance members. You’ll also earn Status Points on HKExpress-operated Cathay Pacific codeshare flights. Holders of select co-branded Cathay cardscan also earn Status Points based on spending. The more Status Points you...
As you can see, status point earnings are based on a combination of fare class and the length of the flight. Generally, each status point averages out to approximately 100 “butt-in-seat” miles flown, although the number of status points you earn for your flight will vary based on a variety of factors. Here are a few key takeaways about the new prog...
Under the new programme, Cathay’s elite status tier qualification levels and benefits remain mostly unchanged. The programme has four standard tiers. Greenmembership is the programme’s entry-level tier. Members automatically become a Green member upon joining Cathay. Unlike the previous Marco Polo Club’s Green Tier, there is no joining fee, nor is ...
In this section, I’ll just go over the most notable benefits of each tier. For a full list of benefits, head over to Cathay’s dedicated website about the programme.
While Cathay Pacific does a pretty good job when it comes to publicising the benefits associated with each membership tiers, there are a few “secret” benefits that exist, but aren’t explicitly mentioned. One notable secret benefit is priority security, which isn’t mentioned likely because it isn’t officially available at Cathay Pacific’s hub in Hon...
Cathay Pacific does not give space-available complimentary upgrades to elite members. Instead, passengers only get upgraded when a flight is overbooked and passengers need to be bumped to a higher cabin class. However, there are exceptions to this rule. For example, on special occasions such as birthdays or membership milestones, members may be giv...
Well, it depends on your travel patterns. If you’re a corporate traveller who almost exclusively flies with Cathay Pacific, you should definitely go for Cathay Elite Status. All things considered, it’s a very lucrative programme for less price-sensitive business travellers. Additionally, Silver members who fly exclusively with Cathay Pacific should...
Cathay Pacific has certainly had an eventful 2022. While some aspects of the new Cathay programme are a little questionable, I feel that the changes could have been much, much worse. Overall, Cathay is still a decent loyalty programme, especially for certain demographics of Hong Kong-based travellers. While I’m not convinced that the new Cathay-lif...
Aug 17, 2022 · The elevated membership programme has a simple four-tier structure of Diamond, Gold, Silver and Green. Current Marco Polo Club Diamond, Gold and Silver members will directly transition into the corresponding Cathay status with automatic status renewal through 2022.
We've renamed Marco Polo Club club points to “Status Points”. Status Points are the key to levelling up your membership status and accessing more exclusive benefits. There are no changes to your balance (1 club point = 1 Status Point), but there’s now a wider range of ways to earn, in the air and on the ground.
Nov 1, 2022 · Cathay Pacific is extending the status of all Cathay frequent flyers – members of the rewards program previously known as the Marco Polo Club – to December 2023, a full year out from the previous tier extension to December 2022.
Aug 26, 2022 · The status levels will stay the same, with the same Diamond, Gold, Silver and Green tiers from Marco Polo Club. All members will be seamlessly transferred across and will also benefit from automatic status renewal through 2022. Asia Miles members will automatically be enrolled as Cathay Green members.
