How can I redeem this?

International production and long-haul domestic travel are realities for film and television professionals working on feature films, documentaries, and global branded content. United Airlines is one of the three major US network carriers, with the most extensive international route network of any US airline, operating hubs in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Houston, and Washington that connect to production locations in Europe, Asia, Latin America, and beyond.

For productions shooting internationally, United's global network means direct or one-stop routing to locations that smaller carriers cannot serve. A documentary production shooting in Southeast Asia, a feature film with locations in Europe and South America, or a commercial production traveling to multiple international cities benefits from a carrier that can handle the full itinerary without multiple interline connections and separate ticketing.

United's MileagePlus program is one of the most valuable airline loyalty programs for frequent travelers, with Star Alliance partnership providing earning and redemption across dozens of international carriers. For production professionals who fly multiple carriers internationally, the ability to consolidate miles on a single program simplifies loyalty tracking.

United's Polaris business class and Premium Plus cabin are relevant for long-haul production travel where rest and recovery between time zones matters. A producer traveling from Los Angeles to London for financing meetings arrives in better condition for substantive meetings in a business class flat-seat than in economy, and many production companies budget business class for transatlantic travel for key personnel.

As a Saturation partner, United Airlines offers a discount or benefit through the perks program for production professionals who travel for work.

Access your United Airlines benefit through the Saturation Card perks portal. Book your production travel through United's website or app, applying any discount code from the perks portal during checkout. Enroll in MileagePlus to accumulate miles on all United and Star Alliance bookings. For international production travel, book as early as possible to access the best business class fares. Review United's baggage policy for production equipment before booking, as oversize and overweight fees can add up quickly for productions traveling with gear.
