Emirates Skywards members can now earn Skywards Miles for every dollar they spend on Hertz car rentals worldwide.

The announcement comes following Hertz's launch of new, exclusive benefits for members of Emirates loyalty programme.

With these new, more rewarding benefits, Hertz becomes the only Emirates Skywards car rental partner to award members with Skywards Miles based on spend and tier. Additionally, Emirates Skywards members will continue to enjoy Hertz’s bespoke promotions and benefits throughout the year, as well as a broad choice of car rental products around the world.

Vincent Gillet, vice president marketing International at Hertz, said: “Hertz has been partnering with Emirates Skywards since 2006 and we are delighted to enhance our benefits for our shared customers, providing them with an even more rewarding journey. We look forward to continuing to offer Emirates Skywards members with a best-in-class car rental experience, characterised by a broad range of car rental options to suit any need and top quality service.”

In addition to accumulating more Skywards Miles and benefiting from special promotions, Emirates Skywards members renting with Hertz will be able to access standard benefits, such as the ability to choose the car that better suits them from a designated slot with Ultimate Choice (only available in the US), and extras such as Hertz Connect, a portable wi-fi device that provides extra connectivity, unlimited calls, and fully comprehensive destination guides (available at selected European locations). Members can also access a host of exclusive services and benefits when joining Hertz’s loyalty program Gold Plus Rewards.
 
Emirates Skywards members can book their Hertz vehicle by visiting the Hertz website. To earn Skywards Miles, members must add their Emirates Skywards membership number during the reservation process and show proof of membership when picking-up the vehicle.  

Skywards Miles per dollar spent with Hertz will be as follows:

• Emirates Skywards Blue members will earn 2 Miles

• Emirates Skywards Silver members will earn 2.5 Miles

• Emirates Skywards Gold members will earn 3 Miles

• Emirates Skywards Platinum members will earn 3.5 Miles

Skywards Miles can be used for flight rewards and upgrades, as well as at Emirates Skywards’ wide range of partners including airlines, hotels and retail & lifestyle outlets. - TradeArabia News Service
