COPA Airlines sent out an email with a little more
news about their new ConnectMiles program. Some highlights include
simply earning of at least 1 mile for every mile flown (of course higher
fare classes/business class will more than likely earn more miles) and
simple redemptions like Saver Awards (the lowest amount of miles needed
per their upcoming award chart) and Standard awards where you can get
any seat as long as it is open , for more miles of course. They will
have one way award pricing so you can mix and match Saver and Standard
awards for example. Find out more here.
