I suspect a few other airlines will do as well. I wonder when this will all end ...

can anyone confirm this? with extending miles

Extending Miles validity​

We’ve extended the validity of any Skywards Miles due to expire on or after April 2020 until 31 December 2021. Skywards Miles can be redeemed up to 11 months in advance for an extensive range of rewards, including flight tickets on Emirates and partner airlines, flight upgrades, hotel stays, and money‑can’t‑buy experiences

so miles expiring 2020 april until 31 dec 2021 are being auto extended?
it doesnt say anything about how long,

I have all my miles expiring in feb 22, so just wondering what to do,

worst case scenario is in Jan 2022 I will book something as far out as possible

Status extensions are now being offered to people with status expiring in January or February 2022 as well.

well, i tried to find out how long my miles extension was, looked every where couldnt find it

I tried to send them an email but their website made it impossible to send an email, just sends your round in circles, so I had to contact them via feedback site,

the reply i got is

Thanks for your email.



As noted, you currently have Miles that are due to expire on 28 February 2022.



The extension of Miles expiry is only until 31 March 2022. The validity of your Miles will be extended only until 31 March 2022. This will reflect on your account on the first week of March 2022.



The 11 months is not an extension of your Miles validity. This is the time frame for which you can buy your tickets for in advance. For example, you can use your Miles to buy a ticket today for flights due in October 2022.

a 1 month extension is pretty stupid
