Air Tahiti Nui Club Tiare
IndependentHUBSPPTLast reviewed May 2026
Club Tiare is the loyalty program of Air Tahiti Nui (ATN), the Tahiti-based boutique long-haul carrier with 4 Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners flying out of PPT (Papeete). Routes include PPT-LAX (daily), PPT-CDG (via LAX), PPT-AKL, PPT-NRT, and PPT-SEA (verify current schedule). ATN is non-aligned but maintains rich bilateral partner agreements - and that is the entire reader story for US flyers. The bilateral partner roster is the loyalty value: AAdvantage, Delta SkyMiles, Air France/KLM Flying Blue, Atmos Mileage Plan, JAL, and Qantas all earn and redeem on ATN metal.
For US readers, ATN is the rare Tier-D-listed program with real US-flyer value - via partners, not Club Tiare itself. The headline sweet spot is AAdvantage at roughly 40,000 miles one-way LAX-PPT economy and 80,000 miles one-way LAX-PPT business in the 787-9 Poerava Business cabin. AAdvantage has the most consistent ATN award availability search experience on aa.com. Citi ThankYou + Bilt transfer to AAdvantage at 1:1, making the Citi/Bilt-to-AA-to-ATN path the most reliable. Atmos Mileage Plan added ATN as a partner in 2024-2025 and offers competitive saver pricing when bookable. Flying Blue Promo Rewards historically priced PPT as low as 25,500 - but ATN availability has reportedly disappeared from Flying Blue online; verify before transferring. Skip Delta - SkyMiles agents are notoriously unaware that ATN is even a partner. Club Tiare itself does not have direct US flexible-currency transfer-in pipes; Club Tiare's main job is the on-metal status and lounge benefits via Air France business lounges.

The cheat sheet.
Club Tiare uses a distance / route / cabin-based earning structure on its own metal but does not publish a robust public award chart. For US readers, the practical chart is whichever partner program you redeem through:
| Route | Currency | Cabin | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| LAX-PPT one-way | AAdvantage | Economy | ~40,000 miles |
| LAX-PPT one-way | AAdvantage | Business (787-9) | ~80,000 miles |
| LAX-PPT one-way | Atmos Mileage Plan | Economy / Business | competitive saver - verify |
| US-PPT via Flying Blue | Flying Blue | Economy | from 25,500 (Promo Reward; availability inconsistent) |
AAdvantage offers the most consistent search availability on aa.com and avoids most fuel surcharges. Verify Flying Blue and Atmos pricing on each program's engine before transferring.
