Press Release Body: November 23, 2007: Jet Airways' JetPrivilege, the frequent flyer programme from India's leading airline has entered into a 'credit card points to JPMiles conversion' partnership with two leading multi-national banks, Barclays Bank PLC and Deutsche Bank.
With this, valid Barclay Bank credit card (Barclaycard) holders based in India will have an opportunity to redeem their reward points towards JPMiles. Barclaycard holders need to accrue a minimum of 500 BarclaycardPoints to be eligible for the JPMiles conversion programme. Accrued BarclaycardPoints can be converted to JPMiles in a batch of 1450 Barclaycard Points. For every batch of 1450 BarclaycardPoints, JetPrivilege members will earn 500 JPMiles.
Similarly, valid Deutsche Bank credit card holders based in India will have an opportunity to redeem their reward points towards JPMiles. Deutsche Bank card holders need to accrue a minimum of 250 Deutsche Bank Reward Points to be eligible for the conversion of their reward points to JPMiles.

These partnerships will give the credit card holders of both banks more redemption options on their credit cards. The more they use their credit cards, the more points they will accrue, which can be converted into JPMiles for free flights on Jet Airways or its twelve airline partners.
