Here’s a guide to making the most of these benefits.

Step 1: Avail Discounted Cathay Pacific Flights Using Axis Bank Atlas Credit Card

Step 2: Earn Accelerated EDGE Miles with the Axis Atlas Credit Card

When you pay for your Cathay Pacific flight with your Axis Bank Atlas Credit Card, you can simultaneously earn EDGE Miles based on your travel expenditure. The Axis Bank Atlas Credit Card rewards you in the following way:

  • 5 EDGE Miles per Rs. 100 spent on travel up to Rs. 2 Lakh per month.

  • 2 EDGE Miles per Rs. 100 spent on travel above Rs. 2 Lakh per month.

For instance, if you spend Rs. 50,000 on a Cathay Pacific flight, you would earn 2,500 EDGE Miles (5 miles per Rs. 100). Accumulating these miles can significantly contribute to future travel rewards, as these miles can be redeemed for other travel benefits or even flights, effectively lowering the cost of your travel over time.

Double Benefits in Action

By using the Axis Bank Atlas Credit Card on Cathay Pacific, you gain immediate savings through the promotional discount and long-term rewards through EDGE Miles. This strategy is perfect for frequent travelers who want to optimize both their spending and rewards accumulation.

Example Scenario: Suppose you book a Premium Economy flight worth INR 1,00,000. Here’s how the benefits stack up:

  • Cathay Pacific Discount: INR 5,000 (using CAXIS5K).

  • EDGE Miles Earned: 5,000 EDGE Miles (5 miles per Rs. 100).

In this example, you save INR 5,000 instantly on your ticket and earn 5,000 EDGE Miles, which could be used for future travel perks.

Key Points to Remember

  • The Cathay Pacific offer is valid only once per card during the offer period.

  • Certain transactions, such as fuel, insurance, rent, and utilities, are excluded from earning EDGE Miles.

By planning your bookings around this offer, you can make the most of both savings and rewards with the Axis Bank Atlas Credit Card on Cathay Pacific. Enjoy your journey with double benefits, knowing you're saving today and earning for tomorrow!
