Emirates Skywards, the loyalty programme of Emirates and flydubai, has announced the return of its exclusive offer enabling ADIB Emirates Skywards Cardholders, Emirates-Citibank Credit Cardholders and Emirates NBD Skywards Credit Cardholders the opportunity to earn Tier Miles, in addition to regular Skywards Miles, on everyday spends until December 31, 2021.

The offer is valid on all eligible spends across several categories including online shopping, utility bill payments, groceries, educational fees, among others.

In a press statement issued on Tuesday, the airline confirmed that it would soon extend this offer to all Emirates Skywards co-branded credit cards in the UAE, including the Emirates Islamic Skywards Cards, Emirates Skywards DIB Credit Cards and RAKBANK Emirates Skywards World Elite Mastercard.

Skywards Miles can be redeemed for rewards such as flight tickets, upgrades and hotel stays.
