The launch comes nearly a year after Citi and Expedia began their relationship with the introduction of ThankYou rewards network on Expedia, which more than one million Expedia customers have joined.
With the new Citi PremierPass/Expedia.com card, travelers earn ThankYou points for everyday purchases made with the card, additional points for eligible travel booked on Expedia.com and points for the miles they fly on any airline. This combination of ways to earn points is unique in the industry.
Paul Brown, president of Expedia North America, said: We heard from our customers that they want a way to earn points for all of their travel and across travel brands. They also want the ability to redeem their points for travel when they want, without blackout dates. This card does all of that, and we believe it significantly enhances the value of ThankYou Network on Expedia.
Terry O’Neil, executive vice president of Citi Cards, added: At Citi, we continually look for ways to increase value to our customers. Our expanded relationship with Expedia and the new Citi PremierPass/Expedia.com card delivers on this commitment by providing accelerated earning potential to Expedia and Citi customers who acquire the card and book their travel through Expedia.com.
