New Travel Partners

[simongr]

Just opened my new platinum booklet and it seems that a couple more airlines have been added:

Emirates
V Australia
Delta


EK is great for me potentially with DXB flights for the parents

EDIT

It would appear these are only privilege partners and not redemption partners

 

[benhadi]

what platinum partner are you talking about? QF or AMEX?

Interesting that the website flags AirCalin, Air New Zealand and V Australia as new, and doesn't mention Delta or Emirates.

(Also, the pages for Local Hotel Partners and International Partners are blank for moi...)

I don't see any changes to airline or hotel redemption partners for Ascent members....

Get AA there and we will all be excited

The privilege partners are connected to the Amex Platinum Cards. I got a brochure from Amex in the mail last week.

EK have a two for one J/F if booked through Amex and 19% off for single J travellers.

If they can get AA as a 1:1 redemption partner then I will get a Amex Platinum card!

Hmm, the 4.5 points per dollar (3 bonus points) at some hotels is tempting.....

Australia-LAX/SFO premium economy with OW upgrade to Business Premier for $3,522 seems interesting value to me. Business both ways c. $12k per air nz website.
