The update makes it easier for members to move from Green through to Silver, Platinum and Concierge, unlocking more perks as they progress through the tiers.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of these changes, a Green Tier member flying four return Smart fare trips to North America will now earn 400 Tier Credits, helping them easily reach Silver Tier rewards.<\/p>\n<p>Susanne Carberry, Chief Customer Officer, Aer Lingus said: \u201cWe know our customers really value the benefits that come with AerClub status, from lounge access to priority boarding. These changes mean members can now earn Tier Credits faster and move through the tiers more easily, even when flying on our lowest fares. These changes make AerClub more rewarding for our customers, however often they choose to travel with us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>AerClub members also earn Tier Credits when flying with Aer Lingus\u2019 partner airlines, including British Airways and American Airlines, by adding their AerClub number when booking or checking in.<\/p>\n<p>Tier Credits are used to determine AerClub tier status and recognise members who fly most often. AerClub members can also separately earn Avios, the reward currency of AerClub, which can be collected not only through flights but also by shopping via the AerClub eStore, hotel bookings, car hire and other partners.\u00a0 AerClub members can use their Avios to book Reward Flights or enjoy discounts on flights by choosing Pay with Avios.<\/p>\n<p>Further information on Tier Credits and AerClub benefits is available at aerlingus.com.<\/p>\n<nav class=\"post-navigation hidden-print clearfix\">\n<div class=\"prev-article col-md-6 col-sm-6 col-xs-12\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<cite>Older<\/cite><\/p>\n<h3>Emirates\u2019 iconic A380 returns to Dubai with world-first Starlink Wi-Fi onboard<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/nav>\n<p>\t\t\t<!--\/sse-->\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aer Lingus recently announced changes to its AerClub loyalty programme, making it easier for members to move up through the tiers and enjoy benefits like lounge access, priority boarding, and complimentary upgrades.
