Conclusion

In order to take full advantage of all the benefits of the Priority program, it is recommended that you first familiarize yourself with all the subtleties and consider individual situations that may arise in the course of cooperation. This will help to avoid unnecessary conflicts and misunderstandings with the accrual of bonuses.

Large banks and airlines are fighting for the attention of the consumer, enticing him with various gingerbread. From literal sweets to other freebies, they try to win you over and s7 is no exception. So, there are special s7 miles that are identical to the bonus programs that almost every major bank has at its disposal. But in their acquisition and use, there are some features that can mislead an unprepared user.

The company itself is a member of the Oneworld international alliance, and what it is and what advantages it brings for you, we will describe below. It already includes over 15 various airlines, but, in addition to them, c7 has other counterparties around the world, most of them travel agencies.

When paying for the services of the company itself or its counterparty, you receive a small percentage deduction - bonuses, which, in fact, are a cashback from each operation performed by the user. It can be combined with bonus cards and get even more benefits, but such credit cards have their drawbacks. Let's figure out what it is bonus program and how to get the most out of it.

Free airfare by s7

Allows you to get a free air ticket by paying the full cost of the ticket at the expense of cashback. However, this is not the only use of the accumulated funds. And here there is a small nuance, because you can pay only 99 percent of the ticket price using miles, the rest will be deducted from your card.

oneworld + emirates ticket

But why do you need a bonus program that will limit you to a single airline, if you can get a card at a bank, with the ability to spend bonuses as you wish?

First, mileage deductions come at much higher rates than you'll find with c7 competitors. Secondly, you can spend bonuses in all airlines and counterparties of the Oneworld program. These are flights to more than 100 countries of the world, as well as 14 other airlines that can be used as a transfer point.

As a result, you get the opportunity to accumulate and use points all over the world and on any air flight. Thus, you can pay for air travel not only within OneWorld, but also within the Emirates program, which allows you to travel almost all over the world.

Upgrade from economy class to business

Surely, many people do not like to fly economy class for many reasons, but they have to do it because paying a few thousand extra for business class seems like a waste of money. However, you can give away part of the bonuses received from flights, namely 6.5 thousand, and increase the class indicated on the ticket. This allows, having flown on vacation and bought tickets back, to fly home already in comfort.

Especially this feature of the program will be convenient for those who need to travel frequently at the expense of the employer, who pays only for the economy class.

Such a system greatly simplifies the life of customers, because the ability not only to buy air tickets, but also to pay for services within the airline, allows you to literally immediately try out the program.

The higher the class of the ticket you buy, the more status bonuses you will receive for purchasing it. But miles are calculated as 10-15 percent of the purchase amount, and are equivalent to 1 ruble in value. That is, all your miles can be conditionally converted into rubles, and in this case, the operations performed with their help will be much easier to calculate and control.

In addition, you can spend bonuses on any actions within the airline and the airport, which allows you not only to pay for your food on the flight, but also to improve flight conditions.

Transfer miles to a friend and charity

However, if for some reason you don’t need bonuses or the employer takes all the expenses on himself without any questions, then the received miles can be transferred to another card and to a friend. And for those who are worried about the prosperity of other people and want to do a good deed, it is proposed to transfer cashback to a charitable organization, because it is still money in a sense.

You should not treat miles as something ephemeral and incomprehensible, because these are literally the same rubles as on your debit card. They are simply presented in the form of other units through which the airline provides cashback from the amount of your expenses.

Miles expire when the client is inactive for a long time, but they can always be transferred to a friend's bonus card. And if this function is not required, then you can simply donate the saved money to charity, thereby giving it to those for whom even a couple of hundred rubles will be a gift. All this allows the client to somehow dispose of the funds received so that they do not burn out without a purpose.

C7 itself cooperates with dozens of charitable foundations, including the Red Cross. Therefore, if you go deep into the topic of charity, then in the comments to the translation you can choose what exactly the money should be spent on. It is worth noting that the funds themselves are not delivered to charitable organizations, but only the purchases made on them. This allows both customers and the airline itself to be sure that the money will not be stolen and will not be used for unnecessary things.

Additional features of S7 Priority

When enough bonuses accumulate, you can either spend in one of the partner companies. c7 cooperates, among other things, with services for booking accommodation, as well as car rental, so free air travel is not the only thing you can count on. The bonuses themselves are of two types:

1. Status. They affect your conditional level, and the higher it is, the better service and flight conditions will be provided to the client. Naturally, highest level affects the percentage of bonus deductions under the miles program.
2. Miles. The cashback itself, which allows you to spend coins equivalent to 1 ruble in any services related to the airline. There is only a small nuance - you cannot pay the full cost of the goods or the flight with the help of bonuses, as this will prevent you from concluding a sales contract. Therefore, only 99 percent of the value of your purchase can be paid with miles, and the rest will need to be laid out from your wallet.

Status points increase your priority as a company customer. The higher it is, the better service is offered to the client. Milli can also be used to extend if you do not use S7 services for a long time, or increase it for a short period in order to experience all the delights of a full-fledged business class in one or two flights and understand whether you need it or not.
