Fun Frequent Flyer Program Names, From Sir Turtle To Platinum Hawk

There are the best frequent flyer programs, and then there are the frequent flyer programs with the best names. This post is about the latter, and yes, the two do seem to be mutually exclusive. 😉

Airlines all have their own unique names for frequent flyer programs, but there aren’t many that really make you go “wow.” In the United States, you have programs like American AAdvantage, Delta SkyMiles, United MileagePlus, etc. I mean, the names are easy enough to remember, but nothing too exciting.

Then you have the names of the individual elite membership tiers, which are all too often just the name of a precious metal, whether it’s Silver, Gold, Platinum, or Diamond.
