In last week's Crier, we reported on US Airways' upcoming mileage expiration change. At the time, the effect date of that change was to be December 1, 2006.
On Tuesday of this week, US Airways pushed the effect date two month further into the future, to January 31, 2007. Here's the revised notice from the carrier's website:
"Effective January 31, 2007, active membership status is based on having earned or redeemed miles within a consecutive 18 month period."
We'll have a summary of recent and forthcoming mile expiration changes in a future newsletter. For now, here's a summary:
~ In August 2005, Southwest extended the life of Rapid Rewards points from one to two years.
~ In August 2006, JetBlue modified its one-year points expiration policy to permit TrueBlue members to extend the life of their points an additional 12 months every time they charge $200 or more, or a JetBlue ticket, to the American Express JetBlue credit card.
~ Beginning October 1, Travel Awards points will be valid for two years, twice their previous life span.
~ And after December 31, 2006, miles will expire after two years of account inactivity. The new policy applies retroactively as well: miles in accounts with no activity during calendar years 2005 and 2006 will also expire on December 31, 2006.
