Please ensure you make the booking at least 7 working days before the departure date.

Guidelines for use

General

  1. The outbound and return portion of your journey must be booked at the same time. When making your booking precise travel destinations must be selected
  2. Return journeys must commence and return to the same country
  3. If award travel is booked in a variety of booking classes i.e. a combination of Economy, Business and Frst class, then miles for the highest class of travel must be redeemed
  4. Diamond Club rules apply for ticket validity/date of booking/reward changes, refunds etc
  5. Back-tracking is not permitted. This means that travel must be made via the most direct route and travel must continue in the same general direction as it started, unless routing restrictions prevent this
  6. When travel involves more than one carrier, all airlines must be Star Alliance carriers
  7. Open-jaw Awards are permitted only within the same zone. By this we mean that it is possible to depart from a different destination than the one you arrived into, providing that the arrival and departure destinations are within the same zone
  8. One way journeys are permitted and will be charged at half the number of miles
  9. No stop-overs are permitted within Europe. Outside of Europe one stop-over is permitted. A stop-over is a lapse of at least 24 hours between your arrival and departure at any transfer point, i.e. if travelling from London Heathrow to Singapore via Frankfurt, you would not be able to stay in Frankfurt for more than 24 hours.

Round the world Awards

  1. A round the world trip is defined as one Pacific and one Atlantic crossing
  2. A maximum of 10 sectors are permitted for round the world Awards
  3. A maximum of 6 stopovers are permitted for round the world Awards, which may be within the same Zone
  4. Round the world Award flights must commence and be completed within a 12 month period.
