Once you obtain the CLIA or IATAN card you will be eligible for additional discounts*: Examples: 50 percent off on standard rates at select hotels. Reduced air travel rates through some ticketless airlines (with an IATAN card only).

A CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association) card, specifically the EMBARC ID, is a professional credential for travel agents and does not directly grant discounted flights to the general public. For travel professionals, the card serves as proof of industry status, which can be used to access "industry rates" or "AD75" (75% Agent Discount) fares on select airlines, though these are increasingly rare in 2026. Most airlines now prefer to offer "FAM" (familiarization) trip rates rather than flat discounts. However, for a certified travel agent, the CLIA card is invaluable for securing reduced rates on cruises, hotels, and car rentals. If you are not a travel agent, you cannot obtain a CLIA card. For regular travelers looking for flight discounts, the best "card-based" strategy remains using airline co-branded credit cards or high-end travel cards that offer companion passes and lounge access, as the CLIA card is strictly a B2B (business-to-business) tool.
