Aer Lingus AerClub

Aer Lingus AerClub also uses Avios, with Tier Credits tracked separately. Its 1 April–31 March qualification year and 36-month inactivity rule are useful checks before combining or moving balances. This profile separates the balance you can spend from the measures used for elite status.

Elite status qualification

Tier Credits support status. The qualification year runs from 1 April to 31 March and includes Aer Lingus flight requirements.

Expiry

Avios expire after 36 consecutive months with no earning, redemption or purchase. A Combine my Avios transfer does not count as qualifying activity.
