RICHMOND, Va., Dec. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- LifeMiles, the loyalty program of Avianca Airlines with more than 5.8 million members, has chosen Connexions Loyalty, a leading provider of loyalty and rewards programs, to extend its accrual and redemption options to include LifeMiles Rental Cars and LifeMiles Things To Do. The enhanced program provides LifeMiles members with exciting new options and augments to one of the most comprehensive travel rewards programs in Latin America.

Available immediately on the LifeMiles website, the newly launched partnership between LifeMiles and Connexions Loyalty includes rental cars in more than 120 countries and gives members access to nearly 10,000 leisure activities such as city tours, culinary activities and shows around the world.
