BIG SHOT

AirAsia offers AirAsia Asean Pass - a travel pass that allows you to book base fares at least 14 days or more before the departure date. The airline also offers BIG SHOT, a frequent flyer program to reward regular travellers. As a BIG SHOT, you get to earn BIG Points with every flight booking and in return, redeem more flights with those points. From septiembre 2017, AirAsia has renovated to BIG points. Under the scheme, points are determined by how often you fly: the more you fly with AirAsia, the faster you will earn points, regardless of how much you spend on fares.

The four-status system moves from Red status - if you fly up to 13 AirAsia flights a year - to Gold and Platinum, and Black for if you fly over 50 times a year. Long-haul and Fly-Thru flights count as two short-haul flights, under the new calculation.
