- Black Friday 2021 deal: Earn 6,000 Aegean miles for new frequent flyer members. The offer ends on November 29, 2021. Direct Link to the Offer
Aegean Airlines is the Greek carrier flagship and is a member of the Star
Alliance. Its frequent flyer miles program is called the Miles + Bonus.
What a silly name!
From time to time, Aegean Airlines do sell their miles at a discounted price, making it
a great alternative miles program to redeem for Star Alliance flights. I do not
recommend anyone accrue Aegean miles, but do watch for when they have purchase
miles promotion that creates opportunities to redeem for a premium class cabin on
Star Alliance flights. Buy Aegean miles and burn them with good use in
mind!
Aegean does pass on high fuel surcharge fees, so keep that in mind and use the
ITA Matrix Airfare Search
tool to determine the surcharge fees. The good thing is you can book Star
Alliance flights using Aegean miles online. You can also view award availability
to see how many miles are needed and surcharges online even you have 0 miles in your
Aegean account. However, you cannot view the flight schedule and airline unless
you have sufficient miles for that particular flight.
