* As of July 1, 2008, all travel on Air New Zealand credited to the Mileage Plus program accrues actual miles, with no minimum.

The miles accrued are determined by the operating airline. Please note that the booking class shown on your ticket may differ from the booking class relevant for mileage accrual.

Ensure your Mileage Plus number is in your reservation at check-in. But if you do not receive your miles go to Retro Credit.

Star Alliance Awards allow you to redeem your Mileage Plus miles for award travel to more than 800 destinations worldwide. No matter which carrier or combination of carriers you choose, the Mileage Plus award levels are the same. They vary only by class of service and region.
