One of the most frustrating moments of my life as a frequent traveller is breakage of my miles and points balances.
You know you have almost enough miles to redeem a flight or enough hotel points to redeem a hotel night, but you need to still bridge a minor gap.
My options back in the day would be limited to buying miles or asking someone to transfer them to me, both of which cost money.
Luckily, airlines and hotel chains have taken cognisance of this situation.
There are a lot of people who don’t travel as frequently to get free flights of their own, but when they pool miles from various accounts, it may help them to get these miles together.
Many airlines and hotel programs allow for pooling of miles between family members and/or friends, making it convenient to use miles from multiple accounts.
In India, Jet Airways’ JetPrivilege is the only programme currently which allows for miles to be pooled from family accounts.
