У меня был перелет PVG-HKG в экономе на Cathay Pacific. Должно быть, мне начислят минимум миль? Билет был недорогой. В какую программу выгодно складывать перелеты с CX?

Если вы летели из Шанхая (PVG) в Гонконг (HKG) экономическим классом на Cathay Pacific, вы, скорее всего, получите начисление базовых миль за пройденное расстояние, а также можете воспользоваться бонусными программами, которые увеличивают их количество.

Earning Miles on a PVG‑HKG Economy Flight

Cathay Pacific начисляет базовые мили, равные расстоянию полёта, даже если тариф был недорогой. Для эконом‑класса часто действуют бонусы, например двойные мили на большинстве рейсов, вылетающих из Гонконга, что может увеличить ваш доход, если вы зарегистрированы в программе Asia Miles и ваш полёт считается вылетом из HKG. Хотя ваш рейс был в обратном направлении (PVG‑HKG), базовые мили всё равно начисляются, а дополнительные бонусы могут зависеть от текущих промо‑акций, подобных тем, что предлагались для полётов из США в Гонконг.

Best Programs for Accumulating Cathay Pacific Miles

Программа Asia Miles является основной программой накопления миль у Cathay Pacific и поддерживает трансфер баллов из American Express, Citi и Capital One, что делает её удобной для «складывания» полётов. Для резидентов США доступен бонус при регистрации (500 миль) и дополнительные 500–1 000 миль за полёт в бизнес‑классе, что может быть полезно, если вы планируете более дорогие билеты в будущем. Если вы хотите максимизировать начисление, стоит следить за временными акциями, такими как двойные или тройные мили на определённых маршрутах, которые иногда предлагаются для полётов из США в Гонконг.

Эти варианты позволяют собрать достаточное количество миль для будущих премиальных наград, используя как базовое начисление, так и доступные бонусные предложения.

Wide Open Cathay Pacific Business Class Award Space For 4 Passengers From Several U.S. Cities
Asia is still pretty locked down due to the pandemic, though there’s experiments in opening up with vaccination in places like Singapore and Thailand. I seems reasonable to hope that 2022 should be far more open for travel than the world is now. You can lock in business class awards between the U.S. and Asia for a year from now, out towards the end of airline schedules. Cathay Pacific is currently making business class awards widely available between the U.S. and Hong Kong for up to four passengers, from several gateway cities, in late spring and summer 2022. This

Cathay Pacific introduces US credit card
Cathay Pacific, the de facto flag carrier in Hong Kong, suffers from no shortage of blog coverage here in the United States. They have a great business- and first-class product, which I hope to try in the future. Dan has flown Cathay business and experienced four of their five (!!!) lounges in HKG, so if you’re looking for a review, look no further. (READ MORE: The best Cathay Pacific business class lounge in Hong Kong Airport?) Today, we’re going to focus on their new credit card, aimed at US consumers, and whether or not it’s worth your time.

Last Day for Two Promos Buying Miles & Points to Save on Luxury Travel
Today happens to be the last day for two promos that I actually do like for buying miles and points. Both of them have potential for some great value for luxury travel. If you would normally be traveling for economy prices, that same cost could net you a luxury experience. Before we start, this promo is not the highest it has been (that would be 40%). Also, you are only allowed to purchase up to 55,000 Hyatt points in a year. If you don’t need them right now, I would pass on this and wait for a better promotion.

Bonus Miles for Flying US-Hong Kong on Cathay Pacific
You can earn triple Cathay Pacific AsiaMiles (August 1 – September 30) when flying from LA or San Francisco to Hong Kong on first, business, or qualifying (Y, B, H, K, L, M, V) coach fares. You could also choose to earn double American AAdvantage miles through August 31 on these flights, but only when flying first or business class (“I” business fares are not eligible for the AA offer). Personally I’d opt for the AsiaMiles, both because coach fares are eligible and because AsiaMiles are hugely valuable — they allow upgrade redemption on Cathay, American, and British Airways and 60,000 AsiaMiles gets you a business class award on BA from the US East Coast to most destinations in Europe (it would take 100,000 BA miles).
