Etihad Guest and The Postcard Hotel Launch Partnership to Reward Luxury Travel Across India Subcontinent
India: Etihad Guest, the award-winning loyalty programme of the UAE’s national carrier,
Etihad Airways, today announced a new partnership with The Postcard Hotel, Asia’s
acclaimed luxury hospitality brand. This marks a significant milestone for the programme as
it expands its network of premium partners and embarks on a new chapter in redefining
luxury travel. Etihad Guest’s new hotel partnership in South Asia underscores the airline’s
deep commitment to the region and its discerning travellers.
Through this collaboration, Etihad Guest members can now earn Miles each time they
book and stay at any of The Postcard Hotel’s distinctive properties across India, Bhutan,
and Sri Lanka – unlocking more rewarding ways to experience authentic, destination-led
luxury.
Etihad Guest members staying two or three nights at any Postcard property will earn 2,000
Miles, while those staying four nights or more will receive 4,000 Miles plus a
complimentary night stay. The partnership brings together The Postcard Hotel’s signature
brand of intimate luxury with Etihad Guest’s globally celebrated rewards programme, offering
travellers meaningful and memorable journeys.
Arik De, Chief Revenue and Commercial Officer, Etihad Airways, said, “At Etihad our
commitment has always been to deliver exceptional customer service and Etihad Guest
stands as a testament to the same. Our connection with India and the region goes far
beyond our network – it reflects a shared appreciation for culture, hospitality, and meaningful
travel. We’re delighted to welcome The Postcard Hotel to Etihad Guest, expanding the
breadth of the programme in the region. This collaboration is a strategic step in deepening
our engagement with the Indian subcontinent, offering travellers distinctive experiences that
celebrate the region’s richness while enhancing the value of being an Etihad Guest
member.”
Kapil Chopra, Founder and CEO of The Postcard Hotel, remarks, “We are delighted to
join hands with Etihad Airways, a brand whose ethos of excellence and guest-centric service
mirrors our own. This alliance enables Etihad Guest members to immerse themselves in the
world of The Postcard Hotel—where every moment is designed to transcend expectations
and deliver authentic, unforgettable luxury and experience our award-winning hospitality.”
Founded in 2018 by Kapil Chopra, with a team of experienced hoteliers, The Postcard Hotel
has redefined modern Indian hospitality through its philosophy of intimate, immersive, and
destination-led experiences. Each of its 11 properties across India, Bhutan, and Sri Lanka
reflects the local culture and surroundings — from tranquil beaches to lush hillsides and
heritage enclaves. Guests enjoy unparalleled flexibility, including anytime check-in and
check-out, and breakfast served at leisure, ensuring a stay that feels personal and
unhurried.
Deepening Etihad’s Commitment to India : This announcement further highlights Etihad’s ongoing investment in India — from strategic partnerships and sponsorships with Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai City FC, to locally inspired cuisine and Hindi-language digital experiences reaffirming its long-standing
relationship with the Indian traveller.
India remains one of Etihad’s most important markets, with more than two decades of
operations and a rapidly expanding base of Etihad Guest members. The airline operates
185 flights per week to 11 Indian gateways, connecting travellers seamlessly between
India, Abu Dhabi, and destinations across its global network.
Etihad Guest continues to expand its global partner ecosystem, offering members the
opportunity to earn and redeem Miles across an extensive network of travel and lifestyle
