U.S. Bank and TACA airlines launce DISTANCIA Visa Credit Card
U.S. Bank and TACA airlines, a premier airline to North, Central and South America, have partnered to offer the new DISTANCIA Visa and DISTANCA Visa Signature credit cards. The new cards will offer accelerated travel benefits and rewards to members of the DISTANCIA frequent flyer program. The DISTANCIA Visa cards are the only cards available to U.S. customers to offer DISTANCIA reward miles.
“TACA is a world-class airline that is recognized as best in class for its service to North, Central and South America, Mexico and the Caribbean,” said Pat Coll, executive vice president of U.S. Bank retail payment solutions. “We welcome them to the U.S. bank family and look forward to serving their loyal customers.”
DISTANCIA Visa offers one DISTANCIA mile for every $1 spent on the card, as well as an additional 15,000 bonus miles when first used. The card also offers up to 6,000 bonus miles with annual renewals and an industry leading, 25 percent excess budget discount.
Other benefits include: double miles on TACA Airlines purchases, no spending limit (currently), access to Visa Signature’s 24-hour concierge service, special offers from hotels, resorts and retailers, access to advance event tickets and travel and emergency assistance.
TACA is awarding 10 passes to fly free for a year as a sweepstakes promotion launching the new DISTANCIA Visa program.
