STC adds Hilton Hotels to its list of Qitaf partners

The strategic partnership aims to provide exclusive services to Qitaf customers and is considered to be the first of its kind for a loyalty program that takes its customers globally by enabling them to exchange their Qitaf points into HHonors points (Hilton Honors Loyalty Points) instantly and through the Internet.

As part of the exchange program, Qitaf customers will be able to exchange their loyalty points to Hilton Honors loyalty points (HHonors) and to redeem them at any Hilton Hotel across the globe for various exclusive services and perks, like free booking and room upgrades, experience rewards and fancy lifestyle.

The agreement comes in line with Qitaf's efforts to fulfill the aspirations of its customers in obtaining unique and exceptional services, such as free hotel bookings and reservations in 3750 Hilton Hotels spread in 84 countries across the globe.

"We are excited with the amount of exclusive features that this program will offer our customers. With this partnership, our customers will have a lot to look forward for at 3750 Hilton hotels in 84 countries across the globe," said Eng. Mazyad Al Harbi, Vice President for Home Services at STC.

He added that this partnership is yet another feat to be added to a long list of Qitaf's achievements, in its continued quest for customer satisfaction and fulfillment of their aspirations, as the leading loyalty program in the Kingdom and the region.

Hilton's spokesperson on the other hand said that the hotel chain is excited about the new partnership. "We are pleased to expand our relationship with Qitaf, and look forward to serving their customers through this joint venture, and to consolidate our presence in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The partnership announcement motivates us to expand our operations in the Gulf and Middle East region with world-class hospitality services that the Hilton brand is famous for," said Rudi Jagersbacher, Area President of Middle East and Africa at Hilton Worldwide.

Hilton Hotels is one of the world's most famous commercial brands and one of the largest hospitality companies in the world, as it is the preferred venue for travelers, developers, partners, and team-members alike, and offers a comprehensive list of services and activities that meet the demands of future STC customers.
