British airways introduces on business programme

ISLAMABAD—British Airways in Pakistan has introduced its ‘On Business’ reward programme for companies to help them get the most out of their travel budgets.
Especially designed for small and medium sized enterprises that have employees who frequently fly for business reasons, ‘On Business’ is a reward programme wherein from all employee travel points are collected and can be redeemed at a later date for Reward flights, Reward flight upgrades and Reward hotel stays, said a press statement issued here on Friday.
Once enrolled, and activated each time a company employee travels with British Airways, the company will receive ‘On Business’ points. ‘On Business’ is free to join and open to any company with three or more traveling employees.
Paul Dhami, British Airways Manager Pakistan and Afghanistan commented, “For small to medium sized companies, the costs associated with frequent business travels can be a challenge, especially for new businesses.
Our ‘On Business’ programme helps to lesson this burden by allowing companies to earn points from employee travel on a group basis. These points can be redeemed for flights, upgrades and hotel stays, an excellent incentive for companies looking to make their travel budgets go further, he said.
Employees who are Executive Club members will continue to earn BA miles and Tier points for themselves as well. However companies under corporate contract with British Airways are not eligible for ‘On Business’ membership.—Agencies
