 "Vistara Points Fest 2024: How to get maximum rewards from its loyalty programme")
Vistara's loyalty programme Club Vistara has launched its annual Point Fest 2024 where members can enjoy various redemption options such as award flights and upgrade awards across all destinations flown by the airline. During the limited period offer from February 20- March 21, 2024, the airline will give members the opportunity to earn up to 100,000 bonus CV points when transferring bank/ hotel reward points from eligible Points-Transfer Partners to Club Vistara.
The Club Vistara (CV) is Vistara's frequent flyer program (FFP) that rewards members with Club Vistara points that can be redeemed for award flights, upgrade awards, and a host of other privileges. It is a loyalty program that rewards members for flying with Vistara and other activities. The CV points can be redeemed for booking free flights (award flights) on the Vistara network, class upgrade for flight tickets, or booking award flights on Vistara’s airline partners.
So, the CV loyalty program enables members to earn and redeem CV points along with enjoying other tier-based benefits. As a CV member, every time you book a Vistara ticket, you earn CV points on the base fare (excluding taxes and fees) based on your CV tier. Members can also earn CV points when booking tickets with partner airlines such as Air Canada, Japan Airlines, Lufthansa, Singapore Airlines, United Airlines, etc.
