What Else Should I know About Airmiles Credit Cards?


  • An Airmile seldom equates to an actual, physical mile. Each credit card issuer quantifies an Airmile in its own way, so check first before you finalise your choice.
  • Look out for special offers on each credit card. Most issuers will furnish you with free bonus points on inaugural purchases, which can often be enough to get a free flight in themselves.
  • Always clear your balance at the end of each month, or you will be paying high levels of interest, which will wipe out any benefits of free flights.
