Emirates’ loyalty program expands to more than 12,000 rail destinations across Europe

Dubai: Emirates Skywards, the loyalty program of Emirates and flydubai, has expanded its travel rewards by launching Skywards Rail, giving members access to more than 12,000 rail destinations across Europe.

Through the new platform, skywards members can redeem their Miles for train tickets across 12 European countries, covering more than 40 major rail operators. Tickets can be booked easily through the dedicated website, https://www.skywardsrail.com/ on both desktop and mobile devices in five languages.

Members can search train schedules, choose their preferred cabin and ticket type, and pay entirely with Skywards Miles or combine Cash + Miles. They can also use their Miles to book tickets for family and friends. E-tickets are delivered directly by email for added convenience.

The service covers domestic, international and high-speed rail travel with leading operators, including Eurostar, Deutsche Bahn, SNCF, Trenitalia, TGV, Renfe and ÖBB, as well as major UK rail services such as Heathrow Express, Gatwick Express, Thameslink, Great Western Railway and ScotRail.

The launch of Skywards Rail further expands the program beyond air travel, offering members greater flexibility and more ways to explore Europe using their Miles.

Emirates Skywards recently celebrated its 25th anniversary and now has more than 39 million members across 190 countries, with over 78,000 new members joining every week.
