Marriott Rewards Makes it Easier for Members to Get Through the Airport With Discounts on Clear Cards
Clear®, the fast pass for airport
security, and Marriott Rewards, Marriott International's award-winning
loyalty program, are giving Marriott Rewards Platinum Elite members a Clear
Card complimentary for a year. Marriott Rewards Gold and Silver Elite
members will receive an extra month when they purchase an initial 12-month
enrollment.
To participate in this offer, elite members must complete online
enrollment at http://flyclear.com/marriottplatinum or
http://flyclear.com/marriottrewards before September 17, 2008.
"We want to make life on the road easier for our members. The Clear
Card offers frequent travelers a fast and effective way to get through one
of the biggest hassles of traveling," said Ed French, senior vice
president, Marriott Rewards. "We are thrilled to be working with Clear to
give this benefit to our most frequent guests."
"Thanks to Marriott, Marriott Elite Rewards Members can now enjoy
predictably faster passage through Clear's lanes across the country," said
Allison Beer, Clear's Senior Vice President. "We expect that by promoting
Clear to Marriott's Rewards Program Elites, Clear will enroll as many as a
hundred thousand of Marriott's most loyal customers, especially as the fast
pass has launched last week at both Reagan and Dulles Airports in the
nation's capital. Marriott Rewards members are just the audience for the
Clear Card, and we expect our joint efforts will give way to a long and
fruitful partnership," she added.
The two brands worked together before when Clear deployed its mobile
enrollment station at the Marriott Marquis in midtown Manhattan to offer
hotel guests and New York's midtown business community quick and convenient
access to the Clear card sign-up process.
