How to redeem Aerolíneas Plus miles

Aerolíneas Plus, the Aerolíneas Argentinas loyalty program, lets a member redeem Miles for award tickets on Aerolíneas Argentinas and participating airlines, subject to a sufficient Miles balance and award-seat availability. [1] Awards can be booked and issued through the program website, the Virtual Assistant or the Contact Center. [1] This guide covers that redemption task under the program’s general terms, which are governed by Argentine law. [1]

Key takeaways

  • Aerolíneas Plus conditions redemption on both a sufficient Miles balance and award-seat availability, which depends on route, season, class, cabin capacity and expected occupancy. [1]
  • Only the account holder can redeem Miles, for themselves or for a traveler they name during booking. [1]
  • Award tickets are non-endorsable; changes carry a reissue fee, with a Platinum or Diamond exception for the “Adelanto y postergación” benefit, and Promotional-class tickets cannot be refunded. [1]
  • The Miles price depends on origin and destination; minors from age 2 until they turn 12 use the adult amount, while infants have separate domestic and international rules. [1]

How do you book and ticket an Aerolíneas Plus award?

Only the account holder can use the Miles in the account, either for their own travel or for another person whose details are entered during booking. [1] The program lists the website’s Canjeá Millas section, the Virtual Assistant and the Contact Center on +54 (11) 5199 3555 as the only authorized channels for issuing award tickets with Miles. [1]

An online request is subject to availability and requires payment of the applicable issuance fee through the website. [1] For a request through the Virtual Assistant or Contact Center, the member identifies with a document; an authorized representative can act with written authorization, the Aerolíneas Plus card and a copy of the member’s DNI. [1]

Which cabins and passengers can you book?

Award tickets can be issued in Promotional class, Turista, Premium Economy, Economy+ or Business, and the classes can be combined across segments of one ticket. [1] Promotional class is limited to domestic routes and is available from 1 October 2024. [1] When classes are combined, each segment follows the selected class’s conditions for refunds or date changes. [1]

Exceptions and limits

  • Award tickets are non-endorsable, even if Aerolíneas Argentinas cancels the flight. [1] If a flight is canceled or rescheduled, the ticket cannot be endorsed to another airline; Aerolíneas Argentinas says it will make best efforts to move the passenger to the next flight on the same route and destination. [1]
  • Miles can be used only on flights operated by Aerolíneas Argentinas and/or airlines associated with the program. [1] The program applies where Aerolíneas Argentinas, SkyTeam alliance airlines and other associated airlines operate. [1]

  • For tickets issued before 1 August 2023, a mixed-class ticket is governed by the most restrictive class for the whole document. [1]
  • The account holder’s Miles expire after three years without an “aerial movement”, and issuing an award ticket can count as one if it is managed before the expiry date. [1] Bank or partner credits, Miles purchases and Miles transfers do not extend that date, and after three years without an aerial movement the account automatically has a zero balance. [1]
