Aer Lingus Credit card - pros and cons?

I knew a change was inevitable but that is ridiculous. Making you spend double to get the same flight benefits (assuming avios points to get a flight wont got up, which they will). We get completely screwed with rewards in this country.

Any possible avenue to screw over the consumer.

Part (much?) of the reason that rewards are so poor is that the interchange fees in the EU, which are used to fund these kinds of loyalty/reward schemes, are so much lower than in the US.

Im most annoyed by the removal of lounge and fast pass. It worked really well for me, I have a silver card anyway but when travelling with my wife she could get into lounge and through fast lane with me and it was a genuinely nice perk that cost them very little.

She’d likely still get through Fast track with you as an AerClub member, no skin off anyones’ nose to let her through. The DAA security lads are pretty sound that way.
 
Hi; nice grid - thanks. Does AL cover winter sports I.e. skiing - do you know? Tia
 
Bank of Ireland has been working on a revised Aer Credit Card offering in recent weeks. An update in relation to this revised offering was posted to this page recently. This has now been removed pending further review.

The existing terms and conditions for the Aer Credit Card rewards (available here) remain in place. These are the terms and conditions that apply to the Aer Credit Card. If there are any changes to the offering in the future we will be in touch with our customers at that time.

We would like to apologise for any confusion caused for our customers.

Still assuming it will be a reduced offer, otherwise why change it?
 
Do you know if two people (the cardholder and an additional cardholder) can review the BOI aerclub card on a mobile app? Avant offer this but KBC did not, only the main cardholder could see anything for KBC. I'm not a BOI customer so it would just be the credit card.

Not on two separate logins, but you could just use the same login, there’s a bit of a faff in setting up a new device but it should work okay. You can even have two logins set up on the app, in case the second person already has a BoI account.
 
off topic -apologies

If any Aer Credit card user here not planning to use or about to expire their lounge access or FastTrack/priority boarding passes, I would be grateful to have them. we are family of 4 travelling with Aer Lingus next month. i have only 2 passes in my rewards section so looking for another 2 if available with any one. thanks
