Earning miles
Earn Mileage Plus miles on all qualifying Blue1 flights, except as noted in the chart below. You’ll earn miles according to the booking class that you purchase.
The miles you earn on Blue1 qualify toward Mileage Plus elite status.
It’s easy to earn miles for your flight. Simply provide your Mileage Plus number when you make your reservation, and make sure that it appears on your boarding pass at check-in.
Save your boarding pass until flight miles have been credited to your account. If your miles haven’t been credited within three weeks, you may request credit online within 12 months of your travel date.

Note that the booking class that appears on your ticket may differ from the booking class that the operating airline uses to determine flight miles earned.
