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.

If you purchase a ticket on a flight that is marketed by Aer Lingus but operated by another airline (known as a code-share flight), the operating airline determines how many miles you earn for your flight.
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.
Using miles
You can use your miles toward award travel on any Aer Lingus flight, worldwide.
