"AF" flights and AF code-share flights operated by AF or JAL are eligible. TGV and Thalys (non-flight routes) are not eligible.
The required mileage is determined based on the distance of total award itinerary (total of sector mileage for each sector and surface sector).
Awards issued for children and infants require the same mileage as those issued for adults.
The total required mileage may vary according to the combination of airline and type of award. Applicable combination of award is subject to the award seat availability of each airline or flight at the time of making award booking, therefore, the combination of award with lowest required mileage may not be guaranteed.
* The combination of award with lower required mileage may be available later along with the change of inventory conditions.
However, the request of the redeemed awards to change into other awards will be treated as new award redemption, and "Mileage Reinstatement Service" with applicable charges will apply.
There are no restricted travel dates during 2012 and 2013, and restricted travel dates for January 2014 and after will be advised later.
At other time the number of seats available for award travel may be limited, or may not be available.
All travel should be in the same class of service.
When different classes of service are involved in 1 round-trip journey, the award level of the higher class will apply.
Award tickets cannot be upgraded by paying the fare differential.
The award ticket will be valid for 1 year from the date the mileage is deducted (the date the ticket is issued).
