Travel with fewer miles
for greater value

When booking award travel with base miles - the minimum number of required miles - tickets are available from 4,000 to 10,000 miles one way for zones A to G respectively.

Choosing dates and flights that can be booked with base miles allows you to enjoy travel with fewer miles.

By using the Seat Availability Check Calendar, you can also conveniently search for days and seasons that offer the greatest value.

Miles can be used to book
your preferred flight for travel
during weekends or busy seasons

Award Ticket PLUS allows you to redeem additional miles - starting from 100 miles - to book an available seat on your preferred flight when no seats are available with base miles.

Miles can be redeemed for flights with convenient flight times or for travel during weekends or busy holiday seasons, making it easier for you to book and plan for your next trip.
