To meet the specific needs of TACA’s airline passengers

US Bank and TACA Airlines (Transportes Aéreos del Continente Americano or Air Transports of the American Continent), an airline serving in north, central and south America, have partnered to offer the Distancia Visa and Distancia Visa Signature credit cards.

The bank has reported that Distancia is the frequent flyer loyalty program of TACA Airlines and Distancia Visa customers will earn one mile for every dollar spent in purchases with the card. Additionally, this card program has an excess luggage redemption discount, apart from other benefits.

Pat Coll, Executive Vice President of Retail Payment Solutions at US Bank, said: “We welcome them to the US Bank family and look forward to serving their loyal customers.”

Matthew Vincett, Commercial Vice President of TACA Airlines, said: “Through the collaboration and combined experience of our teams, our new Distancia Visa credit card is a product we believe will meet the specific needs of our target market. The new Distancia Visa will be the only credit card available to US residents that awards Distancia Miles.”
