Wichita Mid-Continent Airport (ICT) announced today it will launch a new customer rewards program based on purchases that travelers make at the airport. Travelers participating in the rewards program will be eligible to earn frequent flyer miles or hotel reward points for every qualifying purchase made at ICT such as parking, and at all retail, food, and beverage shops in the terminal. In addition, travelers overnighting or dining at the DoubleTree by Hilton Wichita Airport will also be able to accumulate rewards. Rewards offered via the program include frequent flyer miles/points from these ICT airlines: American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Southwest Airlines, and United Airlines.
The Airport is partnering with Thanks Again, LLC to offer the program. “Wichita Mid-Continent Airport is the only Kansas airport to offer this customer rewards program in conjunction with Thanks Again®. This program is an excellent way for us to recognize and thank our travelers for their loyalty with each and every purchase,” said Victor White, Director of Airports. “Whether paying for parking, buying a magazine or gift in one of our retail shops, or enjoying a bite to eat at one of our airport restaurants, passengers will be able to accumulate mileage or points with their favorite airline or hotel.”
To take advantage of this new opportunity to earn miles or points at ICT, travelers can enroll at www.thanksagain.com/ict or text FLYICT to 82257. There is absolutely no cost to join and because Thanks Again has a presence in more than 170 U.S. airports, Wichita travelers will also be able to earn miles or points for purchases made at many other airports across the country including Seattle-Tacoma International, Houston Intercontinental, Newark Liberty International, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International, and Dallas-Fort Worth International Airports, to name a few.
“The DoubleTree by Hilton Wichita Airport is pleased to partner with Wichita Mid-Continent Airport to reward the guests that stay or dine at our hotel,” said Michael Phipps, General Manager of the hotel. “The program is an excellent opportunity for us to give something back to our loyal patrons.”
“We are honored to partner with Wichita Mid-Continent Airport to offer a seamless airport-wide loyalty program.
