Can I earn miles for someone else flight?
Earn miles
Only the person who flies, stays or rents will earn the miles. So, if you paid for someone's ticket, the traveler would earn the miles. No. You can only earn credit in one loyalty program at a time.
Does award travel give mileage credit?
As a general rule that award tickets do not earn frequent flyer miles since they are paid for with miles, the same way you do not earn hotel points when you redeem points on an award stay. Frequent flyer programs will usually exclude award booking classes from mileage accrual. This applies to partners as well.
Can you book award travel for someone else?
Book Award Flights for Anyone Using Your Miles
For example, if you hold the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card, you can redeem Ultimate Rewards points for flights via the Chase Travel Portal at a rate of 1.25¢ per point, and those flights can be for any person.
Can I book a flight for someone else with my frequent flyer number?
Most frequent flyer programs only allow you to credit mileage to the account of the person flying. Inputting the same frequent flyer number for two different passengers wouldn't work, because the name on the account has to match the name on the ticket.
Can I get miles for family members?
More frequent flyer tips:
Family members can either provide their own frequent flyer account number or forfeit the miles. Kids who have their own seat can sign up for their own account, regardless of age. The only complication is if you're flying with an infant.
What details do you need to book a flight for someone else?
Put your name and card information in the billing section and the name of the person you're buying the ticket for in the traveler section. It's important that you enter all the information correctly, or the passenger may not be able to board.
Do you get Eqm for award tickets?
No. Award tickets earn no miles, EQDs, or EQMs.
