The Rezidor Hotel Group has joined the BalticMiles loyalty programme of the Latvian national airline airBaltic. With immediate effect, BalticMiles members earn 500 points per stay at a Radisson Blu or Park Inn hotel in Europe, Middle East and Africa.
Rīga - Tero Taskila, Chief Commercial Officer of airBaltic: “Radisson Blu and Park Inn hotels are excellent addition to the BalticMiles partnership programme. BalticMiles even more steps out of the Baltic region becoming a very international loyalty program, thereby even more beneficial to our clients.”
“This partnership strengthens Rezidor’s leading position on the Baltic market”, says John Kennedy, Vice President Marketing & CRM at Rezidor. “Since June 2010, our group manages 9 former Reval hotels in Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania and has grown its Baltic portfolio to 13 hotels in operation with a total of over 3,000 rooms”, continues Kennedy.
