Topics we are documenting
Each of these will become a dated, verifiable guide as the library grows.
Earn points
How points accrue on qualifying spend, and which partners and promotions add to the balance.
Redeem points
How award nights are priced, and where points go furthest against the equivalent cash rate.
Elite status
How status is earned and what it changes in practice, from boarding order to upgrades.
Expiration
When a balance lapses, and the qualifying activity that resets the clock.
Transfer partners
Which flexible currencies move in, and what to confirm before an irreversible transfer.
Award booking
Finding award space, routing rules, partner access, and the surcharges attached.
