Jazeera Airways launches gift vouchers, available on jazeeraairways.com and immediately with purchase

Freedom Town, Kuwait, 24 August 2011: Give your loved ones the perfect gift this Eid, give them a brand new gift voucher for travel on board Jazeera Airways to any of its destinations.  Available only on jazeeraairways.com and in the amounts of KD15, KD25, K50 and KD100, the gift voucher is also redeemable on jazeeraairways.com towards any destination on the airline’s network.

With the launch of this new service today, Jazeera Airways became the only airline in the Middle East to provide gift vouchers online, another first for the award-winning airline. Benefits of purchasing an online voucher include email delivery of the voucher and the ability to directly redeem the voucher through Jazeera Airways call center and desks.

Jazeera Airways CEO Stefan Pitchler said, “Jazeera Airways gift vouchers are a great gift for any occasion, and a new and exciting idea to surprise your loved ones.  Recipients can choose from 17 destinations in the region for a weekend getaway or a vacation to one of the culture-rich cities, all at convenient frequencies and schedules.”

Jazeera Airways gift vouchers are valid for a full year, and can be applied for the payment of new bookings, for settling existing bookings, as well as upgrading existing bookings.

The new service follows a series of value-bolstering service enhancements introduced by the airline since September 2010 that included free baggage allowance of 40 kilograms for all customers, free on-board meals in Economy Class and an ‘à la carte’ menu for Business Class guests.

Jazeera Airways offers some of the Middle East’s best value-for-money fares for Economy Class and for Business Class travel.  Jazeera Airways’ Business Class offering includes a separate cabin for passengers, exclusive check-in counters, and business lounge access at airports.

Jazeera Airways is an IATA-member airline and operates one of the youngest Airbus A320 fleets across the Middle East and North Africa.
