Emirates Frequent Flyer Card Details

Bring the world closer, sooner with the Emirates Citi Platinum Card. Enjoy free access to the Emirates Lounges in Australia and the Marhaba Lounge in Dubai, the convenience of Emirates' chauffeur-drive service when you travel to and from airports in Australia, a generous 1.5 Skywards Miles for every $1 spent and complimentary Travel Insurance.

Skywards is the award-winning frequent flyer program from Emirates. 1.5 Skywards Miles are earned for every $1 of purchases on the card. These Miles are automatically transferred to Skywards at the end of each statement cycle and credited into the primary cardholder's Skywards account within 15 days. Once transferred, Skywards Miles can be used to redeem flights (domestic or international on Emirates or its partners), hotels stays and for merchandise through emirateshighstreet.com.

You will receive 5,000 Skywards Miles on your first statement when you take up your Emirates Citi Platinum Card.

Each year, as an Emirates Citi Platinum cardholder, you'll receive complimentary access to one of Emirates' world-class lounges in Australia for you and a guest. Simply book your Emirates flight on your Emirates Citi Platinum Card and present your Emirates boarding pass and Emirates Citi Platinum Card to gain access. Whether you're travelling to or transiting through Dubai, Emirates Citi Platinum cardholders are invited to enjoy complimentary access to the Marhaba Lounge. Simply present your credit card to gain access. This privilege is extended to secondary cardholders as well. Each cardholder can bring in two children under the age of 12. Additional passes can be purchased at the door.

While you're booking your flights, why not arrange for an airport transfer to and from your doorstep? Complimentary chauffeur-driven cars are available to all Emirates Citi Platinum cardholders who book a Business or First Class Emirates flight on their Emirates Citi Platinum card. For Economy Class passengers, the chauffeur-drive service is offered once a year when travelling on a non Trans-Tasman Emirates flight purchased on your card. This is available to and from your chosen destination and the international airport from which your Emirates flight departs in Australia. Each car can take up to four passengers travelling together.

Enjoy a special low interest rate on balance transfers. You could save hundreds of dollars in interest when you transfer balances from other non-Citibank credit or store cards and personal loans.

An annual fee of only $199 per year is incredible value for money and considerably less expensive than comparable cards.

Virgin Blue, flies domestically to multiple destinations in Australia. As at 1 December 2008, Skywards Miles can be earned and redeemed for Virgin Blue flights.

Complimentary International Travel Insurance coverage is provided to Emirates Citi Platinum Cardholders and their family if they meet the eligibility criteria contained in the Insurance Terms Conditions.
