How Can Club Vistara Users Avail Benefits After Air India Merger?

Singapore Airlines Secures 25.1% Stake in Air India Merger

As per the reports from last month, Singapore Airlines (SIA) confirmed it had received Indian government approval for Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) as part of the merger, securing a 25.1% stake in the merged entity, previously a state-run carrier.

For those who are concerned over what would happen about the Club Vistara, which is the company’s frequent flyer program, then that would be integrated into Air India’s Flying Returns program. Club Vistara will remain functional until the integration is complete.

How to Link these Accounts?

  1. Go to your Club Vistara account on the official website.
  2. Go to “My Account” section and then select “Link Accounts.”
  3. Enter your 9-digit Flying Returns Membership ID and submit.
  4. Once the personal details shall match in both accounts, they will be linked.
  5. If these do not match, or let’s say if you don’t have a Flying Returns account, then a new one will be created. Club Vistara points, tier points, and vouchers will be transferred.

Notably, Multiple Flying Returns accounts can be merged into one for streamlined rewards management.

It should be noted by the flyers that the Club Vistara points will convert to Flying Returns points at a 1:1 ratio, enabling you to use them for Air India flights.

In addition to this, Club Vistara tiers (Base, Silver, Gold, Platinum) will align with Flying Returns tiers (Red, Silver, Gold, Platinum). Members may also be upgraded based on their cumulative points.

Any bookings made with Club Vistara points, as well as upgrade vouchers and complimentary tickets, will transfer to your Flying Returns account.
