Kenya Airways has signed a strategic partnership with Art of Luxury, a premium retail destination bringing together international luxury brands, to strengthen customer engagement and offer travellers with exclusive shopping and lifestyle experiences.
The agreement includes a bulk purchase of five million Asante Rewards points and joint marketing initiatives across selected Kenya Airways channels, creating opportunities to connect luxury retail, travel and customer loyalty.
Under the partnership, Kenya Airways will promote Art of Luxury through airport advertising, its in-flight magazine, digital content, email communications and video. The partners will also explore exclusive luxury experiences for the airline’s premium customers.
The collaboration is expected to strengthen brand visibility, expand customer engagement opportunities and support the growth of Asante Rewards, Kenya Airways’ loyalty programme, while creating opportunities for future joint campaigns and premium customer experiences.
“Our customers travel for business and for leisure, and many of them shop and spend with the same care they bring to choosing an airline,” Habil Waswani, Acting Group Managing Director and CEO of Kenya Airways, noted. “This partnership will bring together marketing, customer rewards and premium experiences, reinforcing Kenya Airways’ ambition to be a premium lifestyle and travel brand beyond aviation.”
Mahesh Shahani, CEO of Art of Luxury, said, “We are proud of this partnership with Kenya Airways, that creates opportunities to connect luxury shopping with travel rewards and curated customer experiences. By working together, we look forward to introducing Art of Luxury to a wider audience and exploring new ways to engage customers who value quality, craftmanshio and exclusivity.”
The partnership marks the beginning of a collaboration focused on exploring new ways to bring together travel, luxury retail and customer rewards.
