Emirates is offering a promotion giving you the chance to earn 1 mile for every minute you spend in Dubai! The promotion is valid from October 1, 2021, through March 31, 2022. But unfortunately, the earnings aren’t unlimited.

Emirates Skywards miles are valid for at least 3 years from the date of travel. Unfortunately, you can’t extend validity through activity. But, Emirates offers travelers a chance to reinstate miles that have expired in the last 6 months for a fee. Plus, Emirates has paused the expiration of miles through December 31, 2021.

JetBlue and Emirates have been long-time partners, but you couldn’t book JetBlue Mint using Emirates Skywards. Until now. Now, you can transfer Amex, Chase, Citi, Cap One, or Marriott points to Emirates to book JetBlue’s premium cabin using Skywards miles. Here’s are the redemption rates and everything travelers need to know about this exciting new redemption option.

It’s official. The long-standing partnership between Alaska Airlines and Emirates is coming to an end. Luckily, there is still some time for Mileage Plan members to take advantage of this partnership. You can still earn and redeem miles through July 31.

Emirates is teaming up with Hilton to offer members 3,000 Skywards Miles when you stay at a qualifying hotel by August 31, 2021. The countries where the qualifying hotels exist are pretty limited, but perhaps you can take advantage of this offer. But, act fast. This promotion is only open to the first 1,000 members who register for the promotion.

Emirates holds a lot of prestige in the aviation industry. In this article, we’re going to show you how using their Skywards Miles can get you into some of the nicest seats in the sky as well as save you points on your next redemption.

It appears that Emirates will block partner airlines from accessing first-class awards. A notice on Alaska Air’s website states that starting April 1, 2021, Emirates will no longer give partners the ability to book Emirates first class awards. In this post, we cover all the details of this change and how you can book an incredible award before this restriction goes into place.

Emirates offers some of the best onboard products in the sky. But booking these aspirational seats can be expensive—even on award redemptions. Perhaps not anymore. Recent searches on Emirates’ site are displaying a massive drop in carrier surcharges across the board. We are seeing some cuts to out-of-pocket costs as great as 90%!

While Citi ThankYou Points isn’t known for being the most valuable transferrable currency, it just added its 16th airline transfer partner: Emirates Skywards. This new partnership means you can now book Emirates’ legendary first-class product to Europe for just 135,000 Citi ThankYou Points round-trip, or fly to Europe in Emirates business class for 90,000 points round-trip.

Chase Ultimate Rewards has added Emirates Skywards as a new transfer partner, which brings its number of airlines you can transfer Chase points to 10. Although it’s always great to see more options, this isn’t likely to be one of the more lucrative partners for most Ultimate Rewards cardholders.
