Conclusion
Qatar Airways this year has made several positive changes to its Privilege Club frequent flier program (after decimating it earlier) that we have covered, such as again allowing award bookings online and no expiry of miles as long as you have any activity at least once every 36 months.
The biggest recent one was the realignment of the QMiles needed for awards on Qatar’s flights that were almost cut in half in some instances. Still, it’s essential always to compare revenue fares and the value of buying miles before pulling the trigger on this.
