FlyBuys® Rewards program officially expands to Europe

Utilizing the 2013 European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (EBACE2013) as a showcase platform, World Fuel Services announced today that eligibility for membership in the FlyBuys Rewards program has been officially expanded to the European business and general aviation market.

Pilots, flight departments, crew members, schedulers and dispatchers in Europe are now able to join the FlyBuys Rewards program and begin earning points and redeeming FlyBuys for top rewards. In addition, participating FBO members of the World Fuel Services Network and merchants located within the eligible countries are able to offer FlyBuys Rewards Points as an incentive to members.

FlyBuys Rewards are earned every time a FlyBuys member utilizes a linked AVCARD, WFS Contract Fuel, or BaseOps account after registering on the FlyBuys website. Points accrue automatically and can be used to purchase merchandise and gift cards from local vendors in their region.

Offering automatic points to its members, this type of loyalty program is largely a new concept in the global market. In fact, when compared to other loyalty programs in the aviation industry, there is no other program quite like the FlyBuys Rewards program.

As a special incentive to encourage new international members to sign up during EBACE, 1,000 bonus FlyBuys Rewards points will be given to new members who sign up during the show. Enrollment and participation is free.

“This is a perfect fit. The business and general aviation industry, by its nature, is not limited by borders. Our member FBOs and FlyBuys members in the U.S. and abroad will benefit equally from this expansion. We are excited to watch this program grow and mature in the international arena” said Michael Clementi, president of World Fuel Services' aviation segment regarding the general international expansion of the FlyBuys Rewards Program.

Currently, the FlyBuys Rewards program has over 8,000 members. Members can earn FlyBuys Rewards at over 7,500 locations worldwide. Visit www.flybuysrewards.com to learn more about this program or come by our stand (#359) at EBACE, Geneva Palexpo in Geneva, Switzerland from 21 to 23 May, 2013.
