Through a partnership with United Airlines, OTG Management has opened a Miles Shop in Terminal C of Newark Liberty International (EWR).
At the Miles Shop, MileagePlus members will be able to use their airline miles to purchase a variety of gifts and amenities. Members who choose to use traditional payment methods will earn five miles for every dollar spent.
“The MileagePlus team works each day with a singular mission: To make the world’s best travel loyalty program more rewarding for our members,” says Praveen Sharma, vice president of loyalty for United. “The Miles Shop at Newark Terminal C is a terrific extension of that mission, as it offers United customers expanded opportunities to earn and use their miles as diverse as our customers are themselves.”
A wide range of products are available at the Miles Shop, including limited-edition headphones, suitcases, cookbooks signed by Alain Ducasse and Elizabeth Falkner, travel kits, power adapters and travel guides. A variety of children’s toys and clothes are also available. Products range from 600 miles to 50,0000 miles.
“United has been an instrumental partner in developing innovative ways to expand its MileagePlus program at Terminal C,” says Rick Blatstein, CEO of OTG. “We’ve received tremendous positive feedback since last November when we introduced the ability for customers to use their MileagePlus miles for meals, and the development of the Miles Shop is a direct result of that unique experience.“
