United Airlines and JCB Launch MileagePlus JCB Platinum Card
Japan Airlines (JAL) will discontinue its special rate for elite members when converting JAL Mileage Bank (JMB) miles to MI Points, effective September 16.
This service is available to JMB members registered as MI Card members. General members can convert 3,000 miles or more but fewer than 10,000 miles per transaction at a rate of 0.5 MI Points per mile, and 10,000 miles or more at a rate of 1 MI Point per mile.
Currently, FLY ON Status members and JAL Global Club members can convert 3,000 miles or more but fewer than 10,000 miles per transaction at a rate of 1 MI Point per mile, and 10,000 miles or more at a rate of 1.2 MI Points per mile. From September 17, this special rate will be discontinued, and conversions will be made at the same rates as those for general members.
The conversion rate from MI Points to JMB miles will remain unchanged for all members at 0.5 miles per point.
