Redeem AirAsia RM100 voucher



What does it take to get a free RM100 AirAsia E-Gift Voucher. I travel with AirAsia the majority of the time with they can be at really cheap rates if booked donkey months ahead of the travel date. So with my credit cards in hand, all of them have the option of redeeming AirAsia gift vouchers.

I know that 1% return is not as good as some other credit cards offering 2% cash back but those come with conditions and tiers of spending. Citibank Premier Miles currently offer unlimited access to the Plaza Premium Lounge in LCCT and KLIA, as well of 2 times per year entry into worldwide lounges under the Priority Pass program.

Over the next year, I have 6 flights booked departing from LCCT. Let's see how beneficial it will be having access to the Plaza Premium Lounge.
