Which airlines can be used in redeeming airline miles with the Escape by Discover® Card?

September 2nd, 2011 - Posted by Erik

Q: Which airlines can be used in redeeming airline miles with the Escape by Discover® Card?

A: You can redeem your miles for credit on any airline with the Escape by Discover® Card. This flexibility is one reason why the card is one of our favorites. It's also very easy to redeem the miles. You simply book your travel with your Escape Card on any airline, cruise, vacation package, hotel or car rental through any airline, travel agent or online travel site. Once you've booked, you have 90 days to redeem your miles for travel credits to your account. (Note you need to redeem in 10,000 mile increments).

Of course, the Escape by Discover® Card really differentiates itself versus other travel cards by offering 2 miles for every dollar you spend on all purchases, while most competing cards offer around the equivalent of 1 mile.  See our comparison of travel rewards credit cards for more details.
