Traveling with a companion just became much more affordable for AirAsia Rewards elite members. Through this privilege, eligible cardholders can secure a 50% discount on the base fare for both travelers when booking for two people on select AirAsia flights.
The Offer
If you are an AirAsia Rewards elite member, you can use your Companion Pass to get 50% off the airline base fare for two passengers traveling together. This applies to both one-way and return trips. Keep in mind that while the base fare is discounted, you will still need to pay the prevailing rates for taxes, fees, and ancillaries like baggage or meals.
Eligibility and Allocation
This benefit is available to active Gold, Platinum, and Black tier members. AirAsia Credit Cardholders receive an instant upgrade to Platinum Member status for their first year upon card activation.
Annual Companion Pass allocations are based on your tier status:
| Tier | Annual Pass Allocation |
|---|---|
| Black Members | 20 passes per year |
| Platinum Members | 10 passes per year |
| Gold Members | 5 passes per year |
