FlightFund/West Voyagers Club[edit | edit source]
FlightFund is America West Airlines' frequent flyer program. FlightFund members can access exclusive offers from the company in addition to priority access in the West Lounge. Since 1985 FlightFund has been extended in the Best Western hotel chain and in 2000 it expanded to SSC Cruises.
Until 2018 FlightFund was divided into three levels: Welcome, Silver and Gold, but with the reorganization of America West Holdings a new unique Loyalty program was created.
In late 2019 and early 2020 FlightFund will be replaced by the West Voyagers Club which will be divided into 5 levels: Welcome, Orange, Silver, Gold and Diamond. West Voyagers Club will also be the new Loyalty program for Best Western and SSC Cruises creating a unique Loyalty program for American West Holdings companies. Since America West Airlines is part of the Vanguard alliance it has been established that West Voyagers club will also be extended to the other frequent-flyer programs of the Vanguard alliance's air companies.
