1 Your guide to miles, tier points and reward flights Earning miles Earn miles on every flight* you take with us. The number of miles you earn all depends on how many miles you fly, your choice of cabin, ticket type and your Flying Club membership tier. As you move through our tiers, you ll earn an additional cabin bonus on top of the miles flown. For Silver members this means a 30% bonus and for Gold members this means a 60% bonus. For example, a Red member flying from New York return will earn 6,926 miles. For the same flight you ll earn up to 9,004 miles as a Silver member, and up to 11,082 miles if you re Gold. * Purchased tickets only. Data correct as of: October 25, 2016.

2 Discover the miles you can earn as a Red member per destination. To calculate the miles earned as a Silver member, simply multiply the miles listed by 30% and for Gold members by 60%.
