Participants accumulate Elevate Points on standard ticket purchases and extra onboard amenities across regional and overseas routes.
Management established a temporary Retro Claim mechanism permitting travellers who flew from April 1, 2026 onwards to credit historical voyages.
Top-bracket members gain enhanced privileges including zero modification fees, increased luggage allowances, and priority standby for earlier departures.
Highest-level benefits apply regardless of whether tickets are secured directly through the carrier or via external ticketing portals.
