Mileage Accrual Method & Notes
Mileage Accrual Method
 
 
Upon flight reservation and ticketing, or check-in, providing a Korean Air representative you’re your SKYPASS member number will result in the automatic accrual of the corresponding mileage award to your account following the completion of travel.
After completing your flight, confirm that the corresponding mileage award has been accrued. If the mileage award has been omitted, completing and presenting the necessary forms to a Korean Air office will result in resolution of the error upon confirmation and corresponding mileage accrual.
 
 
  CAUTION
  - Please store safely your boarding pass and flight ticket receipts until mileage accrual for the corresponding flight has been confirmed.
- If you enroll as a Korean Air Internet member, you can easily confirm your mileage accrual status via the Korean Air website (www.koreanair.com). If you register your e-mail address, you will be sent automatic mileage accrual notices via e-mail.
 
Mileage Accrual Notes
 

To receive mileage awards and accrual, passengers must be enrolled as SKYPASS members.

Mileage accrual is not available for any flights taken prior to SKYPASS membership enrollment.

Mileage earned in Korean Air’s SKYPASS program on or after July 1, 2008 has a validity of five years and any unredeemed mileage will expire. Mileage earned on or before June 30, 2008 will not expire. The five-year validity is calculated from the date of travel on Korean Air and partner airlines.

Mileage accrual is not available when traveling via complimentary flight tickets or 50% or more discounted flight tickets, as well as when using special reservation classes.

For joint flights serviced by a Korean Air partner carrier, mileage is only accrued if the flight ticket was issued via Korean Air.

For SKYPASS Junior Members: Mileage is accrued at an equivalent of 75% of adult mileage awards, even if adult fares were paid.

Mileage awards equivalent to one person are accrued even if the member is required to purchase two or more seats (extra seat, cabin baggage, stretcher, etc.).

Mileage Accrual Standards
Korean Air automatically converts the distance traveled by each customer to miles for accrual purposes, and mileage accrual rates vary according to seat class.
