Modifications to status qualification criteria because of COVID-19

We understand that many of our members' travel plans have been disrupted over the past few months and, in all likelihood, will continue to be for some time to come.

Earlier this year, we took steps to ensure top-tier levels remained within reach for the benefit period that began on May 1, 2020. We lowered the eligibility criteria, making it easier for members to qualify for Privilège or Premier status, and we extended the status of existing Privilège and Premier members through April 30, 2021—regardless of travel activity. We're now happy to announce that we're extending the status of existing Privilège and Premier members by an additional year, until April 30, 2022.

We'll continue to adapt the eligibility criteria as the circumstances around COVID-19 evolve. Please ensure your email address is up to date and that you've opted in to receive our program updates, so we can stay in touch about any changes we'll be making.
