What brands do you wish offered SkyMiles?

Published January 17th, 2008 in SkyMiles | 11 Comments →

Greetings!

I work in the SkyMiles department and I’m responsible for generating new partnerships that allow members to earn more miles with the program.

We’ve seen a great response to the new partners that we added late last year such as Shutterfly and Teleflora. I am very excited about all of the things that SkyMiles has in store for 2008. We already have some great new partners on the way!

The program’s success comes solely from everyone taking advantage of the numerous ways for you to earn miles. I want to make it easier for everyone to earn miles in your everyday activities and purchases. I would love to get some additional ideas for future partnerships from you, our loyal customers. You can be as general as a new category that we don’t offer or as specific as your favorite brand.

I’ll make sure to keep everyone posted in the coming weeks and months to share our progress.

Global Good Is Taking Off

Published September 25th, 2007 in Community, SkyMiles | 8 Comments →

Hey everyone,

OK, so you want to use your miles for a luxurious vacation to Hawaii, Europe or another exotic destination, right? I can’t blame you. However, many of your fellow SkyMiles members are now bidding their hard-earned miles to do physical labor in a foreign country.

SkyMiles members (and my Delta co-workers) are buzzing about the chance to be a part of the growing “voluntourism” trend and participate in the first-ever SkyMiles Global Good Auction.

The winning bidder and a guest will take off with Delta’s Force for Global Good and Habitat for Humanity in November on an around-the-world experience, which will include accommodations, airfare, a four-day build in Mumbai and sightseeing around India. Participants will join 40 Delta employees to build 100 homes, where more than 600 men, women and children will eventually reside.

So far, we’ve seen a great response! With less than four days of bidding left, 44 SkyMiles members have bid on the package, and the current bid is 110,000 miles. To top the off the altruism, the winning mileage bid will be donated to Habitat for Humanity.

So you still have time to check out the SkyMiles Auction for more details on the Habitat build and our other cool Auction packages (maybe a spa outing or golf getaway in Florida is more your speed?). Then, bid your miles and enjoy!

Managing Director - SkyMiles

P.S. – We plan to add a new slate of Auction items once a quarter so be sure to check them out regularly and let us know what you think.
