Bonus miles are a kind of payment method that can be used to upgrade the class of service on the plane or purchase a free flight. You can earn bonus miles in a variety of ways.
Instructions
Step 1
Register for frequent flyer programs. Choose airlines that you regularly use on long flights. Typically, this procedure can be completed online.
Step 2
Read the rules for earning bonus miles on the airline's website. There you can also get information about the partners of your air carrier and what bonuses you will earn if you purchase their services.
Step 3
Order a special credit card for bonus miles. There are two main types of such cards: bank cards and those issued by airlines. As a rule, banks provide more ways to earn bonus miles, and airlines provide an opportunity to acquire higher status faster.
Step 4
Follow the news of the airlines. Sign up online for their newsletter. This will allow you to know in time about the opportunity to earn miles on better terms.
Step 5
Buy miles at auctions when you need to collect the required amount for a large purchase. Buy bonus miles from authorized resellers listed on the airline's website.
Step 6
You can get miles as a gift from family and friends. Airlines usually allow you to earn miles from a third party for a fee.
