JAL Mileage Bank - Reminders when Redeeming Mileage

Who is Eligible for Awards
Reminders When Exchanging Mileage for Awards
How to Request Awards

Awards can be used by the JMB member and the following relatives.

*	If a person other than the member will be using the award, the designated user may be required to show proof of the relationship to the member.

JMB members may not combine their mileage in order to receive awards.
Mileage accumulated in other companies' mileage programs cannot be combined with JMB mileage in order to receive awards.
Awards issued for children and infants require the same mileage as those issued for adults.
Infants may possess either (1) a mileage award ticket, or (2) an infant-fare ticket based on the same class of service as that which is to be utilized by the adults traveling with the infant, or (3) an infant-fare ticket based on a lower class of service plus an upgrade certificate. Infants traveling on mileage award tickets will occupy their own seat. Infants traveling on infant-fare tickets will not occupy their own seat.
Check your mileage balance.
Please make sure that you have the required number of miles at the time you request an award. You cannot request an award if you do not have the required mileage.
Taxes and fees.
Taxes, charges and various handling fees such as fuel surcharges and airport taxes applicable for international award tickets or upgrade awards will be collected from the applicable JMB member or the user of awards.
Please click here for further details of JAL international flight "Fuel surcharge" and "Security Surcharge".
(When traveling with partner airlines, the amount of "Fuel Surcharge" and "Security Surcharge" may differ in application from JAL Group airlines)
Your reservation must be confirmed.
Award tickets and upgrade awards require confirmed reservation. The award will not be issued until your reservation has been confirmed. Once the reservation is confirmed, the award application will be completed by deducting the necessary miles from your JMB account and issuing the award.
Waitlists are not permitted for Japan domestic flight sectors of JAL Group Airlines and JMB partner airlines' flight sectors.
Mileage refunds.
Once redeemed, mileage cannot be refunded to your account or used in exchange for a different award even if the award is completely unused. Deducted mileage from member's account can only be refunded by using the "Mileage Reinstatememt Service for Unused Awards".

Awards can only be requested, issued, and received in the American Region.
The member himself/herself must request the Awards regardless of who uses the Awards.
However, members who wish to entrust another person to do so should register an official proxy to their JMB. To register, login and click [Proxy Registration/ Change/ Cancellation].

*	Award application cannot be made at JAL ticket offices, JAL airport counters or JMB Centers in other regions.
