Airline Credit Card

An airline credit card is a credit card which offers some kind of points or rewards, which is usually air miles for flights, to the card holder each time the credit card is used to make a purchase. The rewards from an airline credit card can be redeemed for free flights or class upgrades from the chosen airline.

An air miles credit card offers a holder who pays off their full credit card balance every month, something back for using their credit card. Air mile rewards can steadily mount up if you are using a credit card frequently to purchase every day items including fuel and groceries, thus allowing you to redeem the air miles, sooner rather than later. There are a large number of credit cards in the UK market offering air miles. Here are our featured airline credit cards :-
