Easyjet and Nectar
Although it flies to Malta, given the lack of an obvious frequent flyer scheme, Easyjet is not really an airline covered by this blog.
Similarly, as you can’t collect Nectar points in Malta (apart from online of course), it’s not really a points programme which has much relevance to this blog.
However, combine the two and we might have something, at least for Nectar points collectors (whom I accept are most likely to be UK-based).
You can now spend your Nectar points on Easyjet flights.
Signing up to Nectar if you’re Malta-based is not entirely straightforward, but it can be done. I have covered this here.
For 500 Nectar points you get £2.50 in Easyjet vouchers, which tallies with the standard “valuation” of Nectar points at 0.5p each.
Easyjet offers some pretty good value flights to Malta if you time it right, and while a budget airline is a different world to the less-than-loveable Ryanair.
As a starting point, here’s two ways of getting 100 free nectar points:
Download the nectar toolbar (you’ll also earn 1 nectar point per 2 searches)
Subscribe to Nectar Daily Deals
So, if you’re a Nectar points holder who fancies a break in Malta, it’s an option for you.
