Delta Air Lines, today announced a new partnership with Prince Hotels & Resorts that will provide SkyMiles members with new mileage-earning opportunities. SkyMiles members will earn 200-500 miles per stay at Prince Hotels & Resorts in and outside of Japan.  All SkyMiles Hotel Plan reservations and mile accumulations will start from April 15, 2013.

To celebrate the new partnership, SkyMiles members will enjoy double miles per stay at any of the participating Prince Hotels & Resorts through June 14, 2013.  For details, visit http://www.princehotels.com/en/ or call +81-3-6741-9155 for booking and confirmation of SkyMiles membership.  Members are requested to provide their SkyMiles ID at the hotel front desk to ensure miles are posted to their SkyMiles account.

“Our new partnership with Prince Hotels & Resorts will strengthen both parties and offer additional mileage earning opportunities for our customers both in and outside of Japan,” said Karen Zachary, Delta’s Director of SkyMiles International Partnerships. “We continue to improve the SkyMiles program to make it more beneficial for our customers.”

Now in its 32nd year, SkyMiles is one of the longest-running and most successful loyalty programs in the travel industry and is the only major frequent flyer program where miles don’t expire.  Members earn miles by flying Delta, Delta Shuttle, Delta Connection carriers, SkyTeam partners and other airline partners.

The program offers mileage-building opportunities through more than 100 worldwide SkyMiles partners, including more than 30 participating hotels, 10 car rental companies, etc. Delta offers many ways to redeem miles, including award travel on Delta and 28 airline partners, or through donation of miles to various charities through Delta’s SkyWish programs.
