Important Customer Notice: Delays expected at OR Tambo Immigration.

Airlink customers travelling through OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg are advised to allow for additional processing times at immigration points for both departing and arriving flights.

Passengers with special requests are required to confirm their requests for assistance 72 hours before the flight, subject to availability.

Vitality Travel by Discovery Bank

Vitality Travel by Discovery Bank is a new integrated travel booking platform that will go live for all banking customers on 22 March 2022 – EDIT : The platform is live today, as of 15 March due to Comair being grounded. The platform will initially only be available via the website through the banking platform once customers are logged in and will not be on the app. The idea for the travel platform was conceptualised in 2021 and being a digital bank, it was easier to integrate into its existing architecture.

Customers can expect huge discounts tied to their Vitality status, which can be used for all booking on the platform. It includes flights, accommodation, car hire and prepackages holidays with local and international partners, all payable with a Discovery Bank account, or via rewards earned from managing health and money.

At the media launch event in Cape Town on 10 March, Vitality CEO Dinesh Govender said the company launched its travel benefits 20 years ago, with over millions of flights booked. “We’re making that better tonight. If you’re a Discovery Bank client, you’re going to be able to access Vitality Travel.”

Essentially, your “healthy” behaviour from Vitality money will allow you to travel more and take advantage of the discounts offered.

Akash Dowra, head of client insights at Discovery Bank shared stats from their existing travel benefits to highlight how much customers love travel. He said in 2019, they were the biggest travel agency in the country due to over a million flights and over 70 000 room nights were booked in the year.

How does it differ from Vitality Health?

“With Discovery Health, we could give you 35% off flights but with Discovery Bank, we can boost that to between 10% to 75% of local and international flights; 25% of over 1000 hotels, B&Bs and apartments and 25% off car hire,” says Dowra. “What that gives you is really deep discounts that I don’t think you’ll find anywhere in South Africa.”

The platform has expanded its flight partners from BA and kulula to include Airlink, Safair and Lift, as well as the ability to search other airlines to compare prices even though you may not necessarily get a discount with them.

How many bookings can you make?

Discovery Bank customers can book up to 6 one way flights per year locally (Airlink, BA, kulula, Safair, Lift) and up to two international flights (Emirates, Qantas, BA) per year and get between 10-75% off the booking. There does not appear to be a restriction on accommodation, with access to 25% off from brands like One&Only, Tsogo Sun, Protea Hotels, aha Hotels & Lodges; and 25% off unlimited car hire from Europcar and Tempest. Coming soon is the option to book prepackaged holidays at a 15% discount from Beachcomber Tours, World Leisure Holidays, Contiki, Royal Caribbean, and Globus.

Here are some examples of discounts that were shared by Discovery Bank from the platform that will be available on 22 March – EDIT: 15 March. The platform is live due to Comair being grounded.

The way I understand the allowance is that you can book your two international flights per year as an account holder for you and a plus 1 but if you want to go on a bigger family holiday, you make use of the packed deals shown above, at the 15% discounted rate. More information will be available once it goes live.

What are the additional benefits as a Discovery Bank customer?

Customers with black or purple cards get access to over 1200 lounges around the world and fast track at airport security locally (I’m sure you’ve seen these separate sections at Joburg and Cape Town airports already). There will also be 24/7 concierge service in a time where anything can be changed or cancelled. The concierge is also for when you need help or assistance – I asked about a call centre and this was the reply I was given; you use the concierge.

What are the Vitality Travel exclusive platform benefits?

• Customers can compare rates across the market with full access to all airlines on the platform. The five local airlines will allow bookings to 40 local and regional destinations; plus you get 2 international flights. In terms of accommodation, it will include not just hotels but one of a kind game lodges, apartments, and exclusive holiday deals.
• Fast-track; airport lounges; 24/7 concierge
• If you have Discovery Bank Forex account, you can save and pay for holidays with multiple currencies.
• Trip management to view your flights, accommodation and car hire in one place and make changes where necessary. A digital vault will let you store important documents safely and securely (coming soon).
• Free travel insurance and buy-up additional cover for international flights (coming soon).
• Book vaccinations and request international medical travel benefit docs (coming soon).

All of this is built on the Discovery Bank architecture, so it’s completely safe, secure and a seamless process from booking to payment, which works through your Discovery Bank account, says Dowra.

Can I benefit as Discovery Health medical aid customer?

Both Dinesh and Akash tells Wired to the Web that Discovery created a free banking product called “Discovery Pay” for any of their existing customers to use, in order to access Vitality Travel, complete with a virtual card. So you can be an insurance or medical aid customer, etc. and sign up for Discovery Pay to access the Vitality Travel platform. But banking customers can leverage their reward tier status to get further discounts of up to 75% off bookings. Important to note though, this product will only be available in the “next couple of months.”

If I join Discovery Bank, what are my immediate benefits?

Last year I also joined Discovery Bank to test Apple Pay when it launched in South Africa because my bank didn’t have the feature. As an account holder, I can get 10% off discount on Vitality Travel, this is before I work on getting a higher tier status.

Financial Considerations

When considering Discovery Travel for financial benefits , clients need to be aware of how to leverage the Discovery Bank benefits and understand the associated fees and savings. This section will elaborate on the specifics of maximising savings while using Discovery Bank products.

Leveraging Discovery Bank Benefits

Discovery Bank clients have access to a range of benefits specifically designed for travel. By using a Discovery Bank card , customers can obtain significant discounts on travel-related expenses. Savings are tiered, with the potential for up to 75% off on flights when utilising both Vitality Money and Vitality Health programs. The exact discount available is directly influenced by the level of engagement with the bank’s services and the status of one’s health and financial wellness.

A key advantage comes from booking through the Vitality Travel booking platform . Clients can make their travel arrangements with ease and often obtain access to additional savings.

Furthermore, clients can earn Discovery Miles through their daily credit card spendings, which can then be used to further reduce travel costs. The amount of savings and benefits are contingent on the use of a Discovery Bank card , which includes both credit and debit cards .

Understanding Fees and Savings

Monthly fees for maintaining a Discovery Bank account and the associated cards can be weighed against the potential savings on travel expenses. It is vital for clients to understand how these fees can impact their overall travel budget.

By calculating the monthly qualifying card spend against the possible discounts, clients can ascertain if the obtained savings justify the costs involved. The higher the card usage, the more substantial the potential for savings, particularly for clients who travel frequently or those who plan well in advance.

In summary, clients must perform a careful assessment of their usual banking practices, travel plans, and spending habits in order to fully benefit from the Discovery Bank travel offers. It is the interplay between the monthly qualifying card spend and the scope of the discounted offers that will ultimately determine the degree to which clients can economise on their travel expenditures.

Maximising Travel Rewards

For travellers seeking to optimise their rewards, knowledge of current discount programmes and credit card benefits can lead to substantial savings on travel expenses.

Accessing Travel Discounts

With Discovery’s Vitality Travel rewards , members can tap into a range of discounted travel opportunities. The programme generally allows for savings of 10% to 35% on both local and international flights. Customers who hold a Discovery Bank account can enhance these discounts significantly. The personalised discounts applied to flights can be boosted to up to 75% , which provides unprecedented discounts in the travel sphere.

When considering Discovery Travel insurance, it is imperative that clients understand the terms and conditions that apply, along with the management of bookings and knowing the relevant conditions.

Reading the Fine Print

Terms and Conditions : Discovery Travel provides comprehensive coverage subject to detailed terms and conditions that policyholders must adhere to. These terms outline the extent of the benefits, as well as exclusions where cover is not provided. It’s particularly important to note conditions such as exclusions for pre-existing medical conditions or circumstances under which claims might be considered void, such as participation in illegal activities or intentional self-injury.

Limits : Specific monetary limits are in place depending on the plan selected by the policyholder. For instance, coverage can range from R5 million up to $1 million in medical emergency cover . These figures reflect the maximum amount payable per individual, per trip.

Fuel Surcharge Tax : Additional costs like fuel surcharge taxes may not be covered under the standard policy benefits. Policyholders should review their policy documents to ascertain if such charges are included or whether additional coverage is required.

Managing Bookings and Conditions

Conditions of Bookings : When booking travel, policyholders must remain vigilant of the terms attached to their tickets and the associated travel rewards programme . It is the traveller’s responsibility to understand how changes and cancellations could affect their insurance coverage.

Travel Rewards Expertise : Policyholders with access to travel rewards should ensure they fully understand how to redeem these rewards and any associated terms. Discovery Travel’s partnership offers require cards to be in good standing—which is defined in respective Discovery Card and Discovery Bank terms and conditions.

Managing Restrictions : A variety of factors, including geopolitical issues and health advisories, can impact travel plans; therefore, travellers should be prepared to manage last-minute changes that might arise. Discovery Travel provides assistance in adjusting policies based on the new bookings, given that policyholders meet the necessary reporting and adjustment conditions.

What is the interest rate on a Discover travel card?

Your interest rate will be determined when you submit your travel card application for a Discover it ® Miles card. The APR you qualify for depends on your credit history and other factors. You can see if you're pre-approved for a personalized offer now or apply for the travel credit card offer on this page. Remember: Discover it ® Miles has no annual fee .

What are the different ways I can redeem Miles?

When you think of the best travel credit card for you, you likely want a card with a signup bonus, a card that allows you to have flexibility when you travel, and a card with rewards that you can use for travel expenses—or in other ways, if you want. With Discover it ® Miles, you get all of that. And as soon as you start earning rewards on your card, you can redeem them as a statement credit for a previous travel purchase. Because once you make a travel purchase, you simply redeem your Miles as a statement credit towards that purchase. 1 So book the travel that works for you, and use your Miles to credit yourself back. Eligible purchases include car rentals, hotels, rideshares, gas stations, restaurants and more. 1 You can also use Miles like cash, without losing any value for your rewards. Turn Miles into cash in any amount, any time 1 , by depositing into your bank account; or use Miles to pay when you check out at Amazon. com 4 or when you pay with PayPal. 5 However you redeem, Miles keep the same value. And Miles never expire. 1

How many Discover credit card Miles does it take to redeem for a flight or other travel purchase?

With the Discover it ® Miles Credit Card, when you're ready to redeem your Miles, 100 Miles = $1 to redeem for cash or travel credit. The great thing about the Miles that you earn with the Discover ® travel card is that they can be used to cover all or part of a travel expense. So the amount of credit card Miles that you'll need to redeem to cover your entire airline ticket will depend on the price of the flight that you booked. This goes for other travel purchases, too, including rideshares or rental car bookings. Remember—you can redeem your Miles for a statement credit for all or part of your travel purchase, to help keep your total costs down.

Where is the Discover travel rewards credit card accepted?

The Discover it ® Miles credit card is accepted at 99% of places that take credit cards nationwide, according to the Feb 2024 issue of the Nilson report. 3  And best of all, it’s a travel rewards card that works just like your favorite credit card. Use it for travel expenses and purchases like getting a rental car or booking a hotel stay. And just as easily use it for everyday purchases like groceries, gas, and paying bills. 

Can I redeem my credit card Miles for cash & road trips?

With Discover, you can turn Miles into cash in any amount, any time. 1 And you can also redeem Miles as a statement credit for travel purchases, which include road trip favorites like hotels, rideshares, gas stations, car rentals and more. 1

How can I earn credit card Miles for everyday purchases?

With the Discover it ® Miles credit card, you’ll earn unlimited 1.5x Miles on every purchase you make, every day. That includes credit card travel purchases like hotels as well as daily purchases like groceries, bills or gas. 

Can I redeem some credit card Miles and keep adding to the remaining balance?

Yes. There is no minimum requirement to how many Miles you have to redeem at a time. If you don’t use all of your Miles when you redeem, you’ll just keep adding more Miles to your total with every purchase. Your Miles never expire. 1

Why choose Discover it ® Miles as my travel credit card?

You have to decide the best travel card for your needs. Discover it ® Miles gives the perks of a travel card with the flexibility of an everyday rewards card. You'll earn 1.5X Miles on every purchase, so it’s easy to rack up rewards fast to reach travel goals. You can redeem your Miles as a statement credit toward your Discover bill, or for cash in any amount, any time. 1 Card membership includes more benefits, like great service and security benefits with no annual fee .

If you're looking at other travel credit cards, see if the card issuer charges a large annual fee. Perks like lounge access, elite status, a loyalty program, a platinum card or a gold card may not be worth the annual fee. It's hard to know what your credit limit will be before you apply for travel credit cards, but you can check how the reward points work for the card issuer. For example, if there is a bonus point on eligible purchases such as 5x points or 2x points, check what the reward is on everyday purchases. "5x points," "2x points" or "Earn 2x" can sound good unless your typical spending doesn't fit the eligible purchases for that card issuer or their annual fee is too high. Finally see if new card membership comes with security features and service benefits or other helpful perks like the opportunity to do a balance transfer.

How does a Miles rewards credit card help you earn travel rewards?

With Discover it ® Miles, you’ll earn 1.5X Miles for every dollar you spend on a travel purchase or any other purchase, with no limits on how much you can earn, and no annual fee Miles never expire. 1 After you earn Miles, you can redeem for a statement credit toward the cost of travel purchases or to get cash rewards. 1 Other travel credit cards, such as an airline credit card, will offer different rewards points and your card membership may include an annual fee.

The U.S. Trusted Traveler Programs accept Discover ® Credit Cards as a form of payment for TSA PreCheck, Global Entry, and others.

Merchants and payment processors are assigned an MCC based on their typical products and services. Discover Card does not assign MCCs to merchants. Certain third-party payment accounts and digital wallet transactions may not be eligible for credit redemption if the technology does not provide sufficient transaction details or a qualifying MCC.

How to redeem Discover it Miles, step-by-step

Update: Some offers mentioned below are no longer available. View the current offers here .

Editor's note: This page includes information about the Discover it Miles that is not currently available on The Points Guy and may be out of date.

Not all travel expenses can be covered by traditional credit card points or airline miles. You need to bolster your loyalty portfolio with cash back rewards or a cash equivalent currency that can cover non-travel expenses. Enter the Discover it Miles credit card.

Although this card calls its currency miles, it doesn't earn miles in the traditional sense of airline miles. The miles have a fixed value and can be redeemed for everything from travel to cash back to Amazon purchases and more.

So how exactly do you go about redeeming them? Here's a step-by-step guide for using your Discover it Miles.

New to The Points Guy? Sign-up for our daily newsletter and check out our beginner's guide .

Discover it Miles overview

The Discover it Miles is a no-annual-fee credit card that earns unlimited 1.5x miles on all purchases. As a bonus, Discover will match all the miles you earn in the first year, with no cap. In other words, you'll earn a respectable 3x miles on all purchases in the first year, which is equivalent to 3% cash back. These miles never expire and are worth 1 cent each, regardless of how you redeem them.

Related: Discover it Miles card review

The process to redeem Discover it Miles is as simple as earning them. After you log in to your Discover account, you'll see your rewards total on the dashboard's right side.

After selecting "ways to redeem," you'll see your total available points and three redemption options:

• Travel credit

Pay with rewards

Redeem on travel

Discover doesn't have any airline or hotel transfer partners . Instead, you could redeem miles to offset recent travel purchases, as well as some non-travel purchases. This is useful for families who often travel during peak holiday seasons and can't always get award availability to line up with their schedules.

With a few simple clicks, you can use the miles to "erase" the cost of recognized travel purchases made within the last 180 days. After selecting the purchase you'd like to offset, you'll get a statement credit for the amount you spent. Unlike some similar cards, there is no minimum redemption.

Any purchase that codes as travel is eligible for this type of redemption, whether it's an Uber ride, flight or Airbnb booking. You do not need to book your travel through a specific portal for it to qualify.

In response to the pandemic, Discover expanded the qualifying category to allow redemptions for certain non-travel purchases. Purchases that can be reimbursed now include those made at restaurants and gas stations . You'll see the eligible non-travel purchases listed on the same page as your travel purchases.

Redeem for cash back

Because Discover miles are worth one cent each, no matter how you redeem them, the best option would be to use them for cash and use as needed. This way, you could pay for your travel and dining purchases with a credit card that earns additional rewards on those purchases.

The cash back redemption option is straightforward, again with no minimum redemption amount. The funds will be deposited directly into your bank account within three business days.

Related: Your ultimate guide to Discover cards

If you want to redeem your miles toward shopping online, you can pay with miles at checkout on Amazon and PayPal. All you need to do is link your Discover card to your accounts and then you'll be able to use miles on the checkout page at the same rate of 1 cent each.

As is the case with other issuers , from time to time, Amazon offers cardholders discounts like 20% off when you redeem at least one Discover mile.

Related: When to use the Discover it Miles card

Bottom line

You're not going to find a more straightforward path to earning cash back and making hassle-free redemptions than with the Discover it Miles Card. Earning 3x miles on all purchases in the first year (once your miles are matched), equates to 3% cash back. That's the best cash rewards earning rate from any credit card out there.

You won't get perks like dining credits or automatic elite status as you do with the top rewards credit cards . However, the Discover it Miles card offers some other valuable benefits, such as no foreign transaction fees and no fee on your first late payment. This card is worth a look, especially if you have some big expenses coming up. Discover it Miles could save you money.
