Wheels Up keeps on turning with Waldorf deal
Transitioning from aircraft to hotel, a luxury experience begins for Wheels Up members as soon as they land at their destination of choice, where they will receive ground transportation provided by Waldorf Astoria.

Wheels Up has entered into a partnership with Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, Hilton's luxury hotel brand, offering Wheels Up members exclusive benefits at ten Waldorf Astoria properties across North America.

From Beverly Hills to the shores of Maui in Hawaii and beyond, Wheels Up members can now further indulge in the luxury that is found at all Waldorf Astoria hotels. The collaboration represents the largest hotel partnership to date for Wheels Up and will enhance the private aviation brand's travel offerings within its robust portfolio of member benefits with one of the world's most recognisable names in luxury hospitality.
