XN Air at Spokane International Airport (GEG) in Washington state is offering up to 5,000 bonus WingPoints from Phillips 66 Aviation for flights to Vancouver for the 2010 winter games.

With Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) in place, XN Air serves as a United States Designated Gateway for general aviation flights into Canada for the 2010 games, Feb. 12-28.

XN Air is also among the FBOs in the western United States approved by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to conduct customs clearance screening. For a minimum fuel purchase, XN Air will provide complimentary onsite TSA security and baggage handling in its new, multi-million dollar executive terminal.

The Phillips 66 Aviation fuel dealer can also coordinate clearance and aircraft support to meet Canadian entry requirements. A Ground Security Coordinator (GSC) is on staff to provide clearance for larger aircraft.

For the winter games, XN will award 2,000 bonus WingPoints for one-way flights from Spokane to Vancouver and 5,000 bonus WingPoints for a roundtrip – when pilots use a Phillips 66 branded credit card to refuel.

WingPoints can be earned on every aviation fuel purchase at participating Phillips 66 FBOs. WingPoints can then be redeemed online at WingPoints.com for debit or gift cards, or donated to charities such as Angel Flight and Young Eagles.

In addition, fuel purchases over 100 gallons will earn free three-day parking. Customers can also enter a special winter games drawing for prizes, including a night at the Northern Quest Casino near the airport.

For more information: XNAir.com or 866-755-5204.
