Etihad Airways has announced a limited-time promotion on the social media platform X for applicants of the Etihad Guest Visa Credit Card through UAE banks. The offer includes bonus miles, elevated travel status, exclusive discounts, and an opportunity to win two return first-class tickets.
According to Visa, co-branded airline credit cards are among the most effective tools for building customer loyalty. These cards provide benefits such as reward miles, lounge access, and seat upgrades. They also generate recurring revenue for airlines while strengthening customer retention, particularly among frequent flyers. Etihad's Guest Visa credit card promotion aligns with these global best practices by bundling high-value incentives to encourage new applications.
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) boasts one of the most developed financial sectors in the Middle East, with a high adoption rate of credit cards among residents. According to Statista, nearly 50 percent of the UAE population held at least one credit card in 2023, demonstrating strong consumer acceptance of payment products tied to rewards. Etihad’s collaboration with four leading UAE banks aims to leverage this environment to maximize uptake of its co-branded card offerings.
