National Australia Bank (NAB) customers could be jetting off to Paris, New York or a host of other holiday destinations as part of an adventurous new offer.

Customers could be eligible for 250,000 Velocity Frequent Flyer Points when they take out a NAB home loan plus make NAB their main bank.

NAB today announced the offer targeting owner-occupier home loan customers to coincide with the busy spring home-buying season.

NAB Executive General Manager Consumer Lending, Angus Gilfillan, said this was the largest Velocity Frequent Flyer Points offer from a major bank and delivered added value for home loan customers.

“We know how tough it is out there for Australians trying to buy a home. It’s a highly competitive housing market at the moment,” Mr Gilfillan said.

“It can take several years to save for a deposit, and for many Australians that means going without a lot of things, such as a holiday. The first year after taking out a home loan is often the hardest and people make a lot of sacrifices.

“We understand that life doesn’t end when you kick start the home buying process – which is why we’re giving customers this opportunity when they need it most.”

The offer could get you two return tickets to New York or London, or a family of four return to Fiji.*

Velocity Frequent Flyer General Manager Commercial Jeroen van Son said: “With Velocity Frequent Flyer Points, you can fly to more than 600 destinations worldwide on Virgin Australia and Velocity’s partner airlines.

“This is the biggest Velocity Frequent Flyer points offer from a major bank in our history – whether you want to take your family to the Whitsundays, enjoy a romantic trip to the Cook Islands or send yourself Business Class to London and back*, Velocity Points give you the freedom to choose.”

Customers can apply between 21 September until 31 December 2015.
