In a test of how well you know the winners of the Freddie Awards—did you know that Avianca (also at one point known as AviancaTaca) has won the best promotion award seven times out of the past eight years? Southwest Rapid Rewards won in 2018 and AAdvantage won in the years 2009-2013. Again a top-five finish for Free Spirit and even an appearance by Frontier Miles, but where did Mileage Plus go? And asking for a friend—we’re wondering when the day will come when bonus offers to sell more miles will not be considered a #great promotion. But those offers appear to have great value to members, in fact, did you notice that the results for this category are the only category in the Americas in which the winner garnered a 9+ rank for its value vote?
