Air India expands rewards programme: Earn flight points while shopping onlineSunainaa Chadha NEW DELHI · 3 min read Last Updated: Nov 06 2026 | 11:36 AM IST · Air India is expanding its frequent flyer programme beyond air travel, allowing members to earn rewards on everyday purchases through a new online marketplace. The airline has launched The Maharaja Shop, a premium lifestyle shopping platform where Maharaja Club members can accumulate Maharaja Points on eligible purchases across Indian and international brands and use them towards flight bookings and cabin upgrades.

Members can earn points on eligible transactions, bringing them closer to redeeming rewards such as Award Flights and Cabin Upgrades on Air India. The airline is also offering complimentary shipping on eligible orders. For consumers who already shop online across these categories, the proposition is to convert a part of their regular spending into airline rewards rather than earning points only when they fly.
