Let’s talk about Miles

(no, not the Vorkosigan one)

Reward miles, or whatever they’re called by the airline of your choosing (my personal favorites: Qatar Airlines Qmiles, because they make you think of Qbits and lead to, like, entangled airplanes or some such; and Avianca’s Lifemiles, because that just sound like after you spent your last mile, you’re just going to drop (out of the air) dead) have become somewhat of a special interest of mine recently. So I thought I’d share what I’ve learned so far. Disclaimer: this post is written mostly from the European perspective, where carrier imposed surcharges (YQ/YR) are much higher than in the US and usually make up 80% of the price of an economy ticket.

Reward Miles - who are they for?

Even if you think gathering miles for flights will never really lead to anything -- because aren’t those just for constant business class flying jet setters? --, having a basic understanding of how miles work could save you some money in the long run regardless.

What’s a normal mile worth? Well, that depends very much on how you’re going to spend it and how you’re flying at the moment. Miles used for first class flights generally bring in the most, and that’s across the industry, but that just means that for the first class tickets you’d like to have, it’ll only cost you $3k instead of $8k, which doesn’t really help that much if the same ticket in coach is available for $500 (especially if those 500 are already straining your budget). Which immediately brings us to what is true for much of the economy:

miles are worth most to rich people flying business and up a lot

miles are worth quite a bit to moderately well-off people who want to fly business and up at least on long-hauls

miles are worth very little if the cheapest economy ticket is usually the only one you can afford

However, they’re basically never worth nothing. Using miles instead of cash might only save you a few bucks per flight, but there are hardly any flights where using miles doesn’t leave you any better off.

What can be done if you have them?

But first, lets get into some of the really cool things you could do if you just had a few miles lying around in your frequent traveler account.

Even if you’re usually not in the running for that sweet $8k private suite above the skies, flying first once, even if it’s just for the experience itself, isn’t actually that far out of reach for most people. Most airlines have various sweet spots where flying in the upper classes using miles approaches premium economy costs for the same distance. The bad thing about that is that those flights are usually starting somewhere you ain’t and lead to where you don’t wanna be. But if you ever find yourself in need of going from Frankfurt to Bahrain via Dammam somewhen between 14 to 3 days from now, that flight in Lufthansa First, including access to the FRA LH First Terminal and Lounge, including being brought directly to the airplane with a limousine driven by a chaffeur can be had ... for about €800 ($930 at current rates). Without ever having to have gotten any mile with any airline before!

Obviously some hacks need to be applied for this to work. First of all, you wouldn’t book that flight through Lufthansa’s own frequent flyer program. Instead, you’d use a Star Alliance partner, in this example KrisFlyer (the Singapore Airlines rewards miles program), where that flight would cost you 35k KrisFlyer miles + taxes and fees (about €200). Now, how to get those KrisFlyer miles if you’re not usually flying Singapore Airlines?

So how do I get them?

Many airlines actually just sell miles! For cash! Miles usually cost anything from 2¢ to 4¢, and depending on use case, they’re worth something between 2¢ to (in extreme cases like this example) 8-10¢. One of the most common sweet spots, flying business on specific long hauls, typically lead to mile yields of about 4¢ a mile. Buying miles at prices below 1.5¢ is almost always worth it, as long as you use them up pretty fast after that. Once bought, you cannot get back your cash’s worth again outside the specific usages the airline will have for the miles. Many airlines also sell miles at lower prices multiple times a year, so a wait and see approach (and never buying miles at the non-discounted rates) will lead to more yield.

Then there’s always promotions for (most notably) credit cards, insurance policies and the like, where getting a new card will net you some miles. Obviously there are associated costs with those promotions as well, but it doesn’t hurt anything grabbing any miles that come with something you needed to get anyways. Then the effective cost of a mile obviously approaches zero and they basically turn into free money.

The most common way shouldn’t be entirely forgotten either: flying and paying full price for your tickets, netting you some award miles. This is most useful if somebody else is paying that ticket price for you, though, because as outlined above, you can almost always save at least some money by exclusively using reward flights for all your needs.

Why don’t the airlines stop this?

So, by now we’ve basically realized that miles aren’t that hard to come by, and using them virtually always undercuts the regular ticket price. So shouldn’t airlines make it harder for people to use miles to their advantage? If everybody had to pay the regular ticket price all the time, the airline surely would net more money?

Yes and no. The airline would make more money if it really sold all those seats at their usual rates all the time. Even with all the talk about overbooked flights, they don’t really, though. I’ve been on planes with hardly any people on them before and airlines know how to make especially those routes they can’t fill that well attractive for people with some miles. That way they at least get some money, even if it’s not full price. (As for why more airlines don’t go for the easier route of lowering official ticket prices then? I don’t really know. Probably a combination of marketing strategy, tradition (also everybody else is doing it) and the limits of the algorithms that determine seat pricing nowadays.

Also, reward programs are designed to be hard to understand and effectively navigate. Most people will collect miles by activities where a single mile costs them more than the “ideal” 1-2¢ cents and spend them in ways that will net them much less per mile. Research into them takes time (and it’s really not enough to just know stuff about one program ... it really helps being familiar with multiple) and mental capacity, along with the opportunity costs associated with those activities. It’s hardly worth it for the airline to fill every last loophole when none but a few insistent people ever take advantage of those. And even then the advantages are certainly noticeable for the single traveler, but you almost never get to fly for literally nothing.

So, now for how to get the most out of your miles.

What airlines hate: flexibility.

Lufthansa has a special program for redeeming miles called mileage bargains (German: Meilenschnäppchen). With that program, you pay only about half miles for rewards flights on routes that Lufthansa chooses monthly. A non-stop return business flight to Asia (the farthest awards region Lufthansa has) would only cost you 70k miles under a mileage bargain. Let’s assume a regular buying price of about 1¢ per mile now. This is an average assuming that some of those miles were accumulated through promotions for stuff you’d have bought anyways, or that you transferred from another rewards program (eg a credit card rewards program where you collect points just for getting your regular groceries). So some of those miles literally didn’t cost you anything, and others probably cost you a bit above 1¢.

Then the 70k miles “cost” you about €700. Add to that taxes and carrier imposed surcharges of about €500 for a flight to Asia and we’re coming out at about €1200 for a business class return flight, lounge access in Frankfurt or Munich included on the ticket. If you have an Amex Platinum, that business class ticket will even be enough not only for the business class lounges but for the Senator/HON Circle/Star Alliance Gold lounges. (Lounges come with free food and showers, among other things, so lounge access at an airport should have assigned a value of at least 30-40€ per visit. Which is incidentally just about what paid lounge access usually costs.)

The same return flight would regularly come out in excess of €2800. Regular cheapest economy will come out at around €700. So we’ve just reduced the ticket price by about 58%, or, coming from the economy ticket, for less than double the price of our ticket we’ve just upgraded significantly and will travel much more comfortable for the more than 10 hours our flight’s gonna take to Hong Kong, Seoul or Tokyo (and back).

The catch: in September 2018 that mileage bargain is available to Tokyo and Osaka. Last month, it was only Osaka. Hong Kong and Seoul aren’t available at all this month. There’s also no destination available in Middle or South America this time. There’s almost always something available in North America, but one month it might be Chicago, and the next it’s NY.

The second catch: Lufthansa tells me I can only book that flight when I’m willing to go sometime between January 1, 2019 and February 15, 2019. Availability isn’t guaranteed for any specific dates (though it is in general pretty good, especially at the start of the month just after new bargains were released).

That’s why I named this section after the fact that airlines hate flexibility. Both in the sense that they’re setting very inflexible targets when there’s a bargain to be had for a customer. And that there’s always a bargain to be had if you’re flexible and either want to really go in that time frame, but don’t care so much where to. Or you know where you want to go and don’t much care about the specific time frame, so you can just wait one or two months until your preferred destination pops up under a bargain and then book it.

(Which nicely ties into that first class flight to Bahrain that we talked about in the intro. If you don’t care to end up in Bahrain, take that plane and enjoy first class. But for people on a schedule and no business in Bahrain, that flight obviously doesn’t have much value. And so even €800 would be too much to pay.)

Conclusion (for the time being)

This post is already pretty long, so I’m gonna cut off here. I’d be interested in any asks that come up and if I should expand this into a series. I’m guessing there are probably a lot of resources for stuff like this already, but the more I’m finding out, the more I want to share of course. Read and review, I guess. (Damn, I really should write more fanfic.)

卡塔尔航空公司与英国航空公司推出阿维奥斯转机服务

卡塔尔航空现已正式推出Avios作为其常旅客计划的新忠诚度货币，取代了之前的Qmiles。

Avios是多个航空公司计划的忠诚度货币，英国航空行政俱乐部、伊比利亚航空Plus、爱尔兰航空俱乐部和Vueling俱乐部都在使用。从昨天开始，卡塔尔贵宾俱乐部会员可以将他们的账户与英国航空公司的账户联系起来，并在两者之间转移Avios。然而，目前不可能将其他方案的Avios直接转移到卡塔尔。

除了这一变化之外，英国航空公司还降低了卡塔尔Qsuite商务舱的兑换价格--包括这些机票的税费。现在，这种兑换是与通过卡塔尔特权俱乐部的预订同时进行的，该俱乐部在过去为Qsuites奖励提供了更好的交易。这一积极变化是由Thrifty Traveler首次报道的。

让我们仔细看看你如何在账户之间转移Avios以及这到底意味着什么。

如何链接您的卡塔尔和英国航空账户并转移Avios

如果您同时是卡塔尔和英国航空常旅客计划的成员，您可以在这里链接您的账户。

当我注册我的卡塔尔特权俱乐部账户时，我被提示将我的英国航空公司行政俱乐部账户与我的卡塔尔账户联系起来。然而，它只在选择英语时起作用。

在选择 "将账户连接到英国航空行政俱乐部 "后，我被提示登录我的BA账户。

再点击一下，我就把我的英国航空公司和卡塔尔的账户联系起来，可以看到每个账户的余额。

然后，您可以通过点击 "合并Avios "按钮在您的卡塔尔和英国航空账户之间转移您的Avios。在下一页，你会被问到你想转入和转出哪个账户，以及你想转多少Avios。你可以通过点击 "移动我的Avios "按钮确认你的转移。在我们的测试中，从英国航空公司转到卡塔尔，反之亦然，都是立即入账。

另外，您可以在英国航空公司网站上的 "合并我的Avios "标签上链接您的英国航空公司和卡塔尔航空公司账户。

这对你意味着什么

总体而言，我们认为卡塔尔加入Avios货币是一个有利的发展。

由于有众多的合作伙伴和大量的甜蜜点，Avios积分是周围最有价值的一些积分。更重要的是，你可以把美国运通会员奖励和万豪邦威转到英国航空和卡塔尔航空，然后在这些计划之间转。

您应该始终牢记，不同计划之间的航班奖励价格可能不同，因此，在英国航空公司行政俱乐部购买同一航班的奖励价格可能低于在卡塔尔航空公司购买的机票。

例如，英国航空公司从慕尼黑（MUC）到伦敦希思罗机场（LHR）的航班，如果通过英国航空公司预订，最多只需花费8,500阿维欧，再加上30欧元。对于同样的航班，在卡塔尔预订需要15,000 Avios加47欧元的共同付款。在这种情况下，你应该使用英国航空公司进行预订。

卡塔尔有可能在未来将他们的合作伙伴奖励表与英国航空公司更紧密地结合在一起，所以在此期间，一定要从自己的利益出发，比较价格。

如前所述，英国航空还降低了预订Qsuite商务舱时的税费，并将票价与预订卡塔尔航空时的票价统一。在从法兰克福到多哈的Qsuite航班上，与直接在卡塔尔预订相比，英国航空公司的税费不到3欧元。

最近，赎回38750个Avios需要支付308.14欧元--比目前多出35欧元。

最终效果

随着卡塔尔航空改用Avios作为忠诚度货币，你现在可以在卡塔尔航空和英国航空之间转移你的奖励积分。在推出这项新功能的同时，英国航空公司还降低了Qsuite兑换的奖励率和附加费，有些是大幅降低，并使其票价与卡塔尔特权俱乐部的票价基本一致。这对拥有Avios（或可转换为Avios的可转让积分）的人来说是个好消息，因为它为世界上最好的商务舱产品之一开辟了新的、更便宜的积分兑换途径。

我们将密切关注这些变化，并在收到进一步的更新信息时通知你。一旦我们收到关于未来是否会对特权俱乐部进行调整以及哪些调整的进一步信息，同样适用。
