Registration and conditions for the Aeroflot card bonus from Sberbank. Comparison of miles and cashback programs Aeroflot accrual of miles per flight

For each flight you fly with the airline or alliance members of which it belongs, you earn qualifying miles.

The number of miles per flight depends on the fare of the ticket, the distance of the flight, and the class. There are tables of miles accrual in the airline rules.

Having flown a certain number of miles per year or a certain number of segments, you get an upgrade in the program (change your status), which gives you a number of privileges (access to business lounges, priority boarding and check-in for the flight, more baggage, the possibility of an upgrade during the flight into business class, etc.). Usually the status is measured by silver, gold, platinum cards (in each airline they are called differently).

Miles can be spent on award flights for yourself and for your friends, in which case you pay only for fuel surcharges, or pay nothing, that is, fly for free.

Miles can be redeemed on Business Class flights, subject to the same fees as for an Economy Class ticket. However, sometimes fees can be higher for Business Class tickets due to additional charges for business passengers, for example when flying from the UK to other countries.

Miles can be accumulated not only by air travel, but also in other ways. The fastest way to earn miles is to apply for a plastic card of the airline's partner bank. For each of your purchases, you will additionally earn miles every month. In this case, miles are non-qualifying, that is, they can be spent, but they do not count towards receiving status cards.

Miles can also be credited to other airline partners, such as car rentals or hotels.

Miles can be spent not only on airline tickets, but also on goods and services of the airline's partners. There are whole catalogs where you can buy goods for miles from a salad bowl and a vacuum cleaner to an exclusive suitcase and a DSLR. One of the largest directories for spending miles is with an airline.

There is a whole strategy of how to accumulate miles, which airlines to fly, how to spend miles more profitably. There are many pitfalls that people do not even suspect, since they do not delve into the terms of the program. Someone accumulates miles for years, and then it turns out that the cost of fees is not much lower than the air ticket itself, and it is impossible to get tickets for popular dates.

To talk about all the pros and cons, I propose to take for comparison two common bonus programs: Aeroflot Bonus from the airline and Miles & More from the German airline.

"Aeroflot Bonus"

Aeroflot has two advantages:
- A wide network of routes in Russia and from Russia abroad. There is, perhaps, not a single traveler who does not fly with a national carrier.
- Huge selection of banks to participate in the co-branding program.

How can I earn miles?
1. Issue a card at any bank, on average, the bank charges 1 mile for every 20-30 rubles. That is, if you made purchases in the amount of 30 thousand rubles this month, then you will be credited with 1,500 miles, and if you bought products for your company for work in the amount of 600 thousand rubles through a card, then this is already 30,000 miles :)
2. Fly. At least once every two calendar years, otherwise your miles will expire. The Internet is full of indignation, how a person saved miles all his life, and they burned out. If you are too lazy to count, then just call the free AeroflotBonus line, and a specialist will tell you about your account status.

The rest of the accumulation methods for the majority of participants are not so essential (miles for hotel accommodation, car rental, filling out questionnaires, etc.)

How to spend?
The most interesting question, which we will dwell on in more detail. We must say right away that the airline does not have free tickets, even if you fly every day and exclusively in business class, because fuel surcharges are always paid additionally.

Once upon a time, participation in the Aeroflot bonus program opened up incredible opportunities for budget travel. People bought tickets from Moscow to Cuba, making a stop there for 2 weeks, then flew further to Mexico, where they spent the rest of their vacation, and on the way back they did a connection for 24 hours in Madrid, for all this they spent 80,000 in business class. miles and 15,000 rubles (!). After tightening the rules in the fall of 2010, the program became not so interesting for aviation gurus, but nevertheless, even now there are directions in which it is very profitable to fly for miles.

If you are accumulating Aeroflot miles or are going to accumulate them, then the following points need to be remembered:
1. It is profitable to fly in business class by miles. Is always. And especially for long-distance destinations. Because for the money the cost of these tickets is high, but for miles, the whole family can fly in comfortable conditions to conditional Madrid or Tenerife for ridiculous money in business class. For example, in order to issue tickets Moscow - Tokyo - Moscow in business, we need 120,000 miles and 10,000 rubles - to pay the fees (the total cost for an air ticket is 106,000 rubles, that is, you save 96,000 rubles and fly 10 times cheaper than yours neighbor in the chair).

To fly from Yekaterinburg to Los Angeles in business class there and back, we will need the same 120,000 miles and 14,500 rubles. The total cost of air tickets will be over 120 thousand rubles.

2. Don't you have hundreds of thousands of miles? Then fly business to Europe, miles are required several times less, but you will feel real comfort. This is not ironic, as it is considered one of the best airlines for serving business passengers for short and medium distances (read - European). For example, if you have 30,000 miles - spend them, say, for a flight from Yekaterinburg to Stockholm in business and it will cost 8,500 rubles.

3. The entire premium grid is divided into zones, it is more profitable to fly from those zones where fewer miles are required. For example, Perm and Chelyabinsk are in the "Russia 2" zone, so residents of these cities have to spend significantly more miles on bonuses, unlike their neighbors - Yekaterinburg or Ufa. But no one bothers you to save miles and fly out of neighboring cities. Likewise, and vice versa, if you want to travel around Europe, then to fly to Zurich you will need 40,000 miles in economy and 80,000 in business, but you can fly to neighboring cities - Frankfurt, Munich, Salzburg - already for 25,000 and 40 000 respectively.

4. It is profitable to fly by miles to those places where low fuel surcharges are, mainly, flights from Moscow. It is not profitable to take tickets to Europe in economy class, since the cost of fees is very high, and it is also unprofitable to take tickets for domestic flights, with rare exceptions. For example, it is very profitable to fly to Yerevan - few miles and little money for fees (20,000 miles in economy and 2,200 rubles in taxes), many miles (60,000) are needed to Kamchatka, but fees will be small - only 4,300 rubles. In addition, we remember point number one: it is profitable to fly in business, therefore it is even more profitable to fly to such places in business class (if the number of miles allows). But Karaganda amazes most of all - the fuel surcharge for a round-trip ticket is 348 rubles. It is also profitable to fly to Tashkent, Samarkand (1200 rubles - tax from Moscow), Baku, Bishkek, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, Vladivostok.

5. It is profitable to fly to long-distance destinations in business class on flights of partner airlines. For example, a flight from Perm in business to New Zealand or Australia with Korean Air and via Moscow / Seoul will cost 24,000 rubles. If you buy this ticket for money, then its cost will be 10 times more expensive.

6. Sometimes the airline does a sale of miles for certain destinations. In this case, significantly fewer miles are required than usual (the fuel surcharge is paid in the same amount).

To summarize in one sentence, it is profitable to spend miles if you live in the Russia 1 zone (Moscow, Samara, Ufa, etc.) and are going to spend miles on CIS cities (Yerevan, Baku, Bishkek, Tashkent, Samarkand, Kiev, Karaganda, Odessa, etc.), to the cities of the Far East, where tickets are usually expensive (Vladivostok, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, Khabarovsk, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky), to all destinations in business class (the Europe 1 ") And - provided that you have a lot of miles - to long-haul routes of the airline itself (Tokyo, Seoul, Havana, Phuket, etc.) and flights of SkyTeam alliance partners (Delta, China Southern Airlines, Korean Air, etc.).

There are some minor nuances that might upset you.

• For popular dates (holidays, May and New Year holidays, summer days) - tickets are sold out a year in advance.
• Tickets to popular destinations are difficult to find, especially if you need to book premium flights for the whole family. In summer, you can't get tickets to Barcelona, ​​Nice, Tenerife, but it's easy to fly to Tashkent. In winter, on the contrary, you cannot find a place for flights to cities from where it is close to ski resorts - Munich, Salzburg, Venice and so on.
• The number of opportunities to transfer awards per year is limited. It is allowed to issue award tickets transfer no more than 10 times per calendar year.
• It is not allowed to make a stop over (stop at the transfer point) for more than 24 hours.
• It is very unprofitable to take premium one-way tickets, for most airlines the one-way fare is 50% of the round trip, but not in Aeroflot :)
• Some partners' fuel surcharges are very high, for example, it is unprofitable to fly with Air France, since its fees are significantly higher than other companies in the alliance.

Well, and most importantly, we repeat that in order to maintain your balance, you must have accruals on your account for at least one regular flight with Aeroflot or Nordavia at a rate participating in the accrual of miles in the Aeroflot Bonus program - for the last 24 months at the time the Award was issued ... Otherwise, everything will burn out. At the same time, a flight by an airline partner in the Skyteam alliance saves miles from burning, but does not allow issuing a ticket for miles in the absence of a flight on Aeroflot for the last 24 months. New members of the program also need at least one paid flight in order to issue an award ticket, otherwise they simply won’t issue a ticket for miles.

Aeroflot mile calculator - online calculation of bonus points

To calculate the accumulated miles, an electronic online tool was developed or on the page of the Sberbank website. Depending on the funds spent and the available Sberbank card, the calculator will calculate the exact number of miles received.

Co-branded payment instruments are increasingly popular with customers. A similar phenomenon is expected, since affiliate offers allow customers to use their money to accumulate bonus points for later use. In 2020, Aeroflot Bonus from Sberbank is one of the most common cards of this type. In this article, we will provide detailed information about the conditions for awarding points and ways to use bonuses.

Miles with Sberbank Aeroflot card

To become a member of the Aeroflot and Sberbank loyalty program, the user must register on the airline's official website and receive a bank card that allows them to accumulate miles for card transactions.

Based on this, the requirements and conditions for accruing miles can be divided into two ways - transferring bonuses from Aeroflot and an addition from a banking institution.

• The air carrier translates miles based on the length of the route, as a result of the flights. Bonus miles are divided into qualifying and non-qualifying. The first option is provided to all customers according to their tariff, the second - only for high-class users. In addition, when completing the registration procedure, any client will be credited with miles for flights made 6 months before joining the program to the bonus account. Qualifying points can only be used to obtain qualifications for a higher status; non-qualifying points are used only to exchange for a flight of a higher level, class of service, or to purchase other offers from Aeroflot.
• Bonuses from a banking organization are equated to non-qualifying bonuses. Points are credited to the account in terms of 60 calendar days, in the ratio for every 60 rubles. 1-2 miles spent on card payments are credited. The number of bonuses provided is calculated based on the card category.

Detailed rules for earning miles and conditions excluding the receipt of points should be found on the official Aeroflot website, in the paragraph dedicated to the program. In this place, the conditions for using this offer are detailed.

Debit card "Aeroflot-bonus" from Sberbank

Currently, the banking institution provides customers with credit and debit plastic products from Aeroflot. Each has its own terms of provision and service, which will be described in more detail. When the co-branding card is activated, the program member is credited with welcome miles to the bonus account, the number of which is calculated based on the card category.

Until the end of 2020, Sberbank is providing a promotion, according to which, upon receiving the Aeroflot Bonus product from the Gold category, an increased number of 3,000 welcome points is provided.

Visa Classic is issued according to the following parameters:

1. The product is issued in a ruble account for a period of 3 years;
2. Card maintenance costs 900 rubles per year;
3. It is possible to order additional plastic and use it in the "Thank you" program;
4. After activation comes 500 welcome bonuses;
5. For every RUB 60 spent using the Aeroflot card, 1 point is credited to the bonus account.

A special calculator is placed on the official website of a banking institution to calculate the approximate number of miles accrued to a program member based on the calculation of spending a certain amount per month on a card.

If the client wishes, it is possible to get a card of a higher category, and also choose plastic Visa Gold. In this variant, the parameters will be as follows:

• The life of the plastic is 3 years, the annual service is 3500 rubles;
• An active account can be either in rubles or in foreign currency;
• Possibility of ordering additional plastic and attachment to the "Thank you" offer;
• According to the promotion valid until December 2020, 3000 welcome miles are provided, according to standard conditions - 1000;
• Transfer of 1.5 bonuses for each RUB 60., paid with a co-branded card.

Bonus rubles for the "Thank you" program using the Aeroflot-Bonus card can only be credited to the participants of the promotion. Other outlets do not provide bonus rubles.

Aeroflot and Sberbank Visa Signature

The most privileged card of Sberbank and Aeroflot Visa Signature. In addition to the prestigious service, this plastic makes it possible to earn twice as many bonuses as with standard cards.

Within the framework of this offer, you can open an account both in national currency and in foreign ones. It is possible to receive bonus rubles "Thank you", to make additional cards. The monthly commission for servicing the card is 1000 rubles. Plastic can be ordered only in the service area of ​​Sberbank Premier.

The holder of such a card has increased privileges not only in the process of calculating miles, but also in flight:

1. Emergency provision of cash in case of loss of plastic, even while abroad;
2. Linking to all electronic wallets;
3. Privileged offers in addition to the main ones;
4. Medical insurance and assistance while staying abroad.

The transfer of bonuses for debit transactions is carried out in the following order - for every 60 rubles. 2 miles are credited.

How to connect Aeroflot Sberbank miles

To accumulate points, it is not enough just to issue an Aeroflot Bonus card. For these purposes, you need to join the program on the official website of the air carrier.

The procedure for obtaining plastic is standard. You need to go to the office of a banking organization with a passport and write an application for a current account and a personalized card. Classic and Gold cards can be opened at any branch of Sberbank. Status cards are issued only in the branches of the servicing clients of the "Premier" segment; it is possible to find out the territorial location on the official resource of the bank.

As soon as the card is received, you need to create your profile in your personal account through the airline's website and register in the Aeroflot Bonus offer. On the plastic itself there is a program participant number, which is required for registration and for crediting miles when purchasing tickets.

In the future, it is possible to connect an SMS notification from an Aeroflot user account. Then the client will be able to receive timely data on the amount of receipts and the balance of the bonus account. In the same place, you can view the number of miles for a specific date for use on a flight.

It should be noted that miles are spent only for the purchase of air tickets, other fees are paid separately in cash or using a payment card.

Aeroflot encourages its customers to take private flights. The Aeroflot Bonus program will allow fly with substantial discounts in all directions. In order to receive discounts, you need to collect miles (points in the program). The more miles you earn, the more discount you get. If you have accumulated a large number of miles, you can fly almost for free (you will have to pay the fees applied to the award ticket, if you fly to Europe, then this is 2-4 thousand rubles).

Miles are credited for flights and purchases from Aeroflot partners. But the lower the class of service you choose when purchasing your ticket, the fewer miles are accrued. You will find a calculator for calculating miles. Miles fall into two categories:

qualifying miles- are charged depending on the booking class and distance. It is this type of miles that is used to increase the status of a program member ("Silver" and "Gold");

non-qualifying miles- accrued for payment for goods and services of Aeroflot partners, are additional miles of silver and gold status. These miles cannot be used to upgrade the status.

In order to become a member of this program, it is enough to fill out an electronic form on the official website of the airline or a paper form on board the aircraft. The best option would be to get an Aeroflot debit card (Visa Gold or Visa Classic) at partner banks. You will find a list of such banks. You will be immediately credited with bonus miles (I use a Sberbank card). I recommend getting a Visa Gold Aeroflot card, because here miles are multiplied by 1.5.

Miles are credited for every dollar spent. With Visa Classic $ 1 = 1 mile, with Visa Gold $ 1 = 1.5 miles. Miles are also credited for staying in hotels that cooperate with Aeroflot (you can find a list of them). 1 night at the hotel = 500 miles.

TripAdvisor.ru is a very attractive way to earn miles for travelers. You can earn 1200 miles in a month simply by writing 12 reviews of the places you visited during the year. An easy enough way to earn miles.

Miles accrual is affected by the member's status. There are three of them:

Basic status- you get it as soon as you started participating in the program. Even children under 12 years old can participate in the program, they will have an Aeroflot Bonus Junior card.

Silver status- assigned to a customer who has accumulated 25,000 miles in one year. With this status you get some privileges:

free transportation of 10 kg. excess baggage

accrual of additional non-qualifying miles for each flight (+ 25%)

priority when registering and booking

Gold level- assigned to a customer who has accumulated 50,000 miles in one year. With this status you get even more privileges:

priority service when booking and checking in for a flight

accrual of additional non-qualifying miles for flights (+ 50%)

obtaining a mile credit of up to 5000 miles when purchasing an award ticket

free baggage allowance is increased by 20 kg

access to 415 comfortable lounges around the world

You can spend miles on award flights or upgrades. You can find out how many miles you need to spend for a specific ticket. note that if you have not made a single paid flight (at a fare) with Aeroflot for 2 years, the miles will expire. More information can be found on the official website, in.

Video about the program

At the end of the twentieth century, the Aeroflot Bonus program was launched, which is still active, and the number of its participants is estimated at millions of people. In parallel with it, the Aeroflot Bonus miles calculator was launched.

As part of cooperation with this program, many banks have started issuing special cards of various levels. When making all kinds of payments from such a card, customers receive bonus points - miles. In the future, using the accumulated miles, you can pay for various services of the air carrier company. Thus, many users and potential program participants are interested in the following question: how to calculate miles. In order to navigate the rate and timing of accumulation, you will need to use a specialized calculator for earning miles.

Accumulating miles

Each client who has opened his own account and a special card with a partner bank gets the opportunity to start earning and accumulating miles. Cards can be of different levels, which directly directly affects not only the level of the user's capabilities, but also the amount of rewards.

Aeroflot bonus program cooperates with partner organizations

It should be noted that there are two main types of virtual reward units:

1. Qualifying.
2. Non-qualifying.

Miles of the first type are credited directly for regular flights within the framework of Aeroflot flights. In addition, users can use the services of other partner airlines that support the bonus program discussed here. For each flight, the client receives a minimum of five hundred miles, but the total amount may also increase due to the distance and class of the flight.

Miles of the second type are credited directly for participating in the programs of partner companies. As a rule, these are not only banks, but also hotels, restaurants, cultural institutions, car services and much more that can be useful to a tourist.

Separately, the main ways of earning miles through participation in programs of program partners can be noted:

1. Welcome. Depending on the level of the issued card, new members receive from five hundred to a thousand bonus miles.
2. Birthday present. For users who have been active over the past year, five hundred gift bonuses are awarded.
3. The balance of the savings account. For the "Airplane" account, if there is a balance, a conversion is made, where one mile is equal to one hundred and twenty rubles.
4. Using a card from a partner bank. For every thirty rubles spent, or one dollar or one euro, the user receives a reward in the range of 1-1.75 miles.

Based on their own capabilities, wishes and preferences, users can earn miles in any convenient way. Attentive users who follow the news and updates can timely receive information regarding all kinds of promotions produced by partner companies. As part of such events, it is possible to receive additional, in addition to those rewards that are due according to the terms of the program.

How to calculate Aeroflot miles

Many users are pursued by a fairly reasonable and rational wish related to the fact that they want to calculate the miles that they can receive to their bonus account after purchasing the planned services and goods.

Mileage accrual calculator

To do this, you will need to use a specialized mile calculator, which can be found directly on the website of the Aeroflot company itself: www.aeroflot.ru/ikm/

This calculator is quite flexible and convenient for a wide range of users. It supports more than twenty partner airlines that provide their services as part of a loyalty bonus program. Aeroflot miles per flight can be calculated taking into account many factors.

First of all, the direction of the planned flight is set, since the number of bonuses accrued directly depends on its complexity and distance. Further, the user indicates whether he plans to fly only in one direction, or whether a return ticket is provided. Another important factor that has a direct impact on the number of bonuses accrued is the client's indication of his level within the loyalty program. It should be noted that the higher the level, the more comfortable and rich the flights can be. For especially “generous and active” program participants, additional “elite” conditions, services and opportunities may be provided.

After all the necessary parameters have been set in the Aeroflot bonus miles calculator, the user will receive a number characterizing the total value of miles that will be credited for this flight. The calculation algorithm is based primarily on the official terms of miles accrual for various tickets purchased for Aeroflot flights. They can be found directly on the official website of the loyalty program.

A complete list of partner organizations is provided on the Aeroflot website

Usage and burning of miles

Of course, after accumulating bonuses, customers wish to spend Aeroflot miles earned for previous purchases, flights and other activities.

There are three main ways in which you can use the previously accumulated bonus units:

• issue and purchase a premium class ticket for a new flight;
• upgrade the service class directly from Economy to Business in an already purchased ticket;
• pay for the services and goods of partner companies that are participants in the program (hotel reservations, visits to excursions and museums, car maintenance, the purchase of goods and services of various categories, and much more).

It is important to remember and comply with all the rules and conditions of the program, which can be found on the official website. Over time, they can undergo changes, and therefore it is recommended to regularly analyze the current state of affairs.

You can control the set of miles and the period of their use in your personal account

Participants who show low activity or do not take any part in the program for a long period should be careful. It is known that the bonus program provides for the possibility of burning the accumulated miles. This happens when a person does not fly a single flight for a period of two calendar years according to the rules of the program.

The flight should be carried out not only when using the partner airline, but also within the framework of a specially agreed fare. It is important to understand that all burned miles cannot be recovered. New clients and participants are notified of such a risk in advance, and therefore, upon concluding an agreement, all responsibility for such consequences lies entirely with them.

This article reviewed the loyalty affiliate program from airlines and banking institutions. The conditions and rules for the accrual of bonus units, the possibilities of their use, as well as methods for calculating the potential reward for the purchases were presented.
