How to Find My Frequent Flier Miles

Almost all major airlines, not to mention many small airlines, offer frequent-flier programs. Both the airline and customers benefit from such programs as it encourages repeat customers for the airline while the customers can use miles to earn discounts on flights, hotels and dozens of other travel-related items, as well as earn special privileges from the airlines. The benefits and discounts get better the more miles you accumulate, but most miles eventually expire when not used for a specified amount of time. For this reason, it's important to know how many miles you have and how long you have to use them.

      Locate the frequent-flier program on the airline site. Most airline websites provide a link to the frequent-flier program along the top of the page. The exact name of the frequent-flier program differs by airline (Delta SkyMiles, United Mileage Plus, American AAdvantage), but the link should mention airline miles or flight rewards.

      Log in to your frequent-flier account or create a new account using your frequent-flier information. When you signed up to receive frequent-flier miles, the airline will have given you a number or card with your account information. Your account number should also appear on any mailings or emails you receive from the airline. If you cannot locate your account or log-in information, contact the airline's customer service by phone or email. A link to the contact information should be at the bottom of the website.
