OREANDA-NEWS. JetPrivilege, the internationally acclaimed, award-winning loyalty rewards and frequent flyer programme of Jet Airways, today announced the launch of a novel programme enhancement, MyFamily+. Aptly titled MyFamily+, this new programme feature allows JetPrivilege members to connect and link their nominated family member's accounts into a single MyFamily+ association. The pooled JPMiles can then be redeemed for award tickets on Jet Airways or any of its 20 airline partners that span over 6000 destinations.

To set up a MyFamily+ association you first need to become a JetPrivilege member and then decide who will be the Head of the Family (HOF). The Head of Family can then initiate the MyFamily+ association by inviting up to 7 members of the immediate family. Even children (ages two to eleven years) can now join the JetPrivilege programme with the introduction of this new feature.

The Head of Family will have the sole authority to 'pool-in' JPMiles from the individual family member's accounts at the time of redemption. The Head of the Family will also be the only person who can add or remove Members or change the home address. The Members of the family (MOF) will continue to collect Tier Points and move through the tiers of the JetPrivilege elite status individually and can also redeem JPMiles from their own account on an individual basis.

The programme is open to JetPrivilege members residing in India.

Gaurang Shetty, Senior Vice President, Commercial, Jet Airways, said "Jet Airways has always been at the forefront of delivering exceptional value to its guest and JetPrivilege members. With the introduction of MyFamily+ - a unique programme enhancement - which has been designed keeping in mind the needs of all members of the family, including children, who can together earn JPMiles while flying on Jet Airways or any of its partner airlines. We are confident the discerning guests will get the maximum benefits while flying Jet Airways."

Manish Dureja, Managing Director, JetPrivilege, said, "We recognize that our guests often travel and shop with family and friends. MyFamily+ the new programme feature from JetPrivilege aims to make travelling together a more rewarding experience. With MyFamily+, you can now link and connect up to seven (7) of your immediate family members to pool JPMiles and make full use of the collective balance by redeeming them for Award Tickets. It has been our constant endeavor to create an enriching and rewarding experience for our members and MyFamily+ is one such key programme enhancement that we are extremely proud to introduce."
