EL AL

Earn Miles

Earn miles when flying on EL AL marketed and operated flights for travel on an eligible published fare ticket. Miles are also earned on EL AL codeshare flights operated by American Airlines.

What is an eligible published fare ticket?

Eligible published fare tickets must be:

  1. Booked in a eligible booking code — find the fare booking code by looking for a single letter which immediately follows the flight number on your ticket. Next, compare this booking code against the airline's "Earn Miles" chart below to determine whether or not it is eligible to earn base miles and, at what percentage base miles will be accrued.
  2. On an eligible routing — check the airline's "Earn Miles" chart below to determine if any origin and destinations are excluded from earning base miles.
Class of Service Purchased Fares Booked in: Base Miles Class of Service Bonus Miles
First Class F 100% 50%
Business Class A, C, D, I, Z 100% 25%
Economy Class Y, B, H, K, M, Q, R*, S, W 100%  
Discount Economy Class G,L, N, T, V 50%  

*Effective for travel on/after January 15, 2010.
