Corporate customer

Hi.

I am reading a text about a commuter airline. The costumers of this commuter airline are classified to "corporate customer" and " retail customer".

First I want to know what "corporate customer" and " retail customer" do mean ?

And in some part of the text, I read the following sentence :

"Corporate customers receive frequent fl ier miles when their employees book flights. "

What does the above sentence mean?

Thanks

A corporate customer is a company or commercial firm like Mercedes-Benz, for example. They will negotiate a contract with an airline to give their employees cheaper flights. A retail customer is a dude like you or me booking an occasional flight at full price.

  • Passengers who make numerous trips accumulate frequent flier miles or airmiles, which are sort of discount points which can be used to reduce the cost of future flights.
