TheTrip.com, the leading Internet travel and information service, and VISA have launched the TripMiles Reward Program, which allows travelers to earn miles each time they purchase airfare on The Trip.com using their VISA card.  As a special incentive during the month of January, travelers earn triple the miles for every dollar spent.

Frequent flyer miles have become an important perk for today’s mobile professionals, and this first-of-its kind Internet program provides rewards with convenience.  Later this month, travelers will be able to track their account balances online, and convert this award into frequent flyer miles with participating major airlines. 

This new partnership features two of the leaders in their respective fields.  VISA, billed as “The World’s Best Way to Pay”, is the leading payment brand worldwide, with over 620 million VISA-branded cards in force, generating over $1.2 trillion in annual volume.  More than half of the people that shop online do it with their VISA card. VISA is accepted at more than 15 million locations in the U.S and internationally.  Their Internet address is www.visa.com. Visit their site for further information or to apply.

  TheTrip.com is an award-winning online travel planning and reservation service which combines high technology with excellent customer service. The business traveler can expect round-the-clock air, hotel and car reservations, city, airport, hotel and weather information, and additional value-added services to make their travel planning easier and their trip more enjoyable.  Their Web site is, of course, www.thetrip.com.
