Despite being discussed on the airline\u2019s website, the scheme was never prominently promoted and remained an invite-only benefit targeting the airline&#8217;s most frequent customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eligibility for the program included three possible thresholds:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>20+ flights flown in 12 months, or<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10+ flights and \u00a31,500+ spent, or<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10-year history of 10+ annual flights with at least one flight per year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, members reported being removed from the program without a clear explanation. The airline issued a generic message citing \u201cmembership review,\u201d causing confusion and dissatisfaction, especially among loyal customers who still met the eligibility criteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After public pressure and customer concern, easyJet released a statement confirming that Flight Club has been placed on hold as part of a broader internal review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The airline clarified that membership cancellations were not based on individual travel behavior or complaints, but were instead part of a collective change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This move comes as easyJet appears to be developing a more traditional and publicly accessible <a href=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/?s=loyalty+program\">loyalty program<\/a>. Industry sources have hinted at a forthcoming scheme with expanded features aimed at competing with more robust airline reward systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flight Club has not accepted new members for nearly three years, signaling a quiet phase-out long before the official pause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/33477150798_b374ec702b_b.jpg\" alt=\"easyJet (U2) is placing its little-known Flight Club loyalty program on hold, surprising many frequent flyers.\" class=\"wp-image-37589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/33477150798_b374ec702b_b.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/33477150798_b374ec702b_b-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/33477150798_b374ec702b_b-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/33477150798_b374ec702b_b-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/33477150798_b374ec702b_b-750x563.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: OE-IVU NCE | MSN 7637 A320-214 \/ A320 \/ A320-200 EASYJET EUROPE | Flickr<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-flight-club-s-benefits\">Flight Club\u2019s Benefits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike premium loyalty programs from legacy carriers, <a href=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/?s=Flight+Club\">Flight Club<\/a> focused on operational flexibility rather than perks like upgrades or lounge access. Key benefits included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Unlimited fee-free booking changes, though fare differences still applied.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Price Guarantee against competitor fares within 48 hours of booking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>easyJet Price Promise, offering vouchers if flight prices dropped post-booking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early access to sales and schedules, giving members a booking advantage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These features mostly benefitted corporate travelers, whose companies often absorbed the cost savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the strategic reasoning, easyJet\u2019s approach to ending Flight Club left many members feeling undervalued. The email notifications lacked transparency and failed to acknowledge customers&#8217; loyalty or offer alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A more respectful explanation and transition plan might have preserved goodwill, especially as easyJet looks to win trust with a new loyalty platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1080px-Airbus_A319-111_Easyjet_G-EZDF__Only_Lyon__8737931127-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1080px-Airbus_A319-111_Easyjet_G-EZDF__Only_Lyon__8737931127-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1080px-Airbus_A319-111_Easyjet_G-EZDF__Only_Lyon__8737931127-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1080px-Airbus_A319-111_Easyjet_G-EZDF__Only_Lyon__8737931127-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1080px-Airbus_A319-111_Easyjet_G-EZDF__Only_Lyon__8737931127-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1080px-Airbus_A319-111_Easyjet_G-EZDF__Only_Lyon__8737931127.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: By Curimedia &#8211; Airbus A319-111 Easyjet G-EZDF &quot;Only Lyon&quot;, CC BY 2.0, https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/w\/index.php?curid=26094320<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>easyJet is expected to unveil a new loyalty scheme aimed at broader customer engagement.
