PAL Mabuhay Miles & SM Advantage Card Renew Partnership, Offering Enhanced Rewards for Members

Mabuhay Miles, the frequent flyer program of Philippine Airlines (PAL), the country’s flag carrier, announced the renewal of its successful partnership with SM Advantage Card (SMAC), the leading loyalty program in the Philippines. This collaboration, which began in June 2022, brings together the two largest rewards programs in the nation, offering even greater benefits to loyal customers.

Mabuhay Miles continues its tradition of setting the bar in the travel industry with exclusive travel perks and exceptional service. This renewed partnership strengthens their commitment to providing members with the rewards and experiences they deserve.

“This partnership represents more than just a synergy between two esteemed brands; it signifies a commitment to enhancing the lives and experiences of our loyal customers, setting a new benchmark for the industry. As we embark on this renewed journey together, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has contributed to making this partnership a reality,” said PAL President and COO Capt. Stanley K. Ng.

SMAC, with over 20 years of experience, has built a reputation for service excellence and providing unparalleled shopping experiences.

PAL and SMAC officials gather for the signing ceremony to formalize the partnership renewal.
