Qwikcilver opens a new inning in South Africa with Asset Manager Solution - Announcing the Airlink Gift Card program launch.
Airlink, an independent Southern African airline, offers its customers the chance to purchase flexible gift vouchers redeemable for air tickets and various services through the airline's website.
The vouchers are ideal as gifts for both individuals and corporations. The vouchers have a validity of three years and can be redeemed multiple times up to the remaining value. Airlink gift cards are transferable and can be redeemed for fares, classes, and ancillary services like extra luggage allowances.
The vouchers can be redeemed for any journey the traveler chooses. Future-dated and customized as personal gifts, the vouchers can also be used in conjunction with credit cards and other forms of payment.
A gift voucher from Airlink can be purchased at any time, and customers do not have to earn or accrue miles in order to redeem it. Gift vouchers can be made out to anyone, and any unspent balance can be put towards future travel by the voucher holder or a designated person. To buy an Airlink Gift Card, click here.

Our new gift voucher offering is the latest of several innovative Airlink responses to meet our customers’ expectations,” said Airlink CEO and Managing Director, Rodger Foster.
Maher Koubaa, EVP, Airlines, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, Amadeus comments, “As travel returns, any opportunity to engage with people’s appetite for travel will be key to secure growth in our industry. In this respect, we’re happy to work with Airlink to include its gift voucher program into the Amadeus Airline Platform.

We look forward to further innovating together – as our platform ecosystem enables both airlines and partners like Qwikcilver to jointly collaborate in an open and agile way."
