Bilt Rewards Adds Japan Airlines as Transfer Partner
🔃 Update: Today Bilt has officially announced the new partnership with Japan Airlines (“JAL”). Bilt Members can transfer their Bilt Points to JAL miles at a 1:1 ratio.
For Japan Airlines Mileage Bank accounts that are less than 60 days old, there will be up to a seven-day (7) waiting period for miles redemption following the transfer of Bilt Points to a Japan Airlines Mileage Bank account. This waiting period will not affect Japan Airlines Mileage Bank accounts that are 60 days old or more.
For more information about the partnership and how to transfer Bilt Points to JAL miles, visit www.bilt.com/p/jal. If you don’t have a Bilt Rewards account yet, you can join now for free.
Bilt Rewards has added Japan Airlines (JAL) as a new transfer partner, allowing members to transfer their points to JAL Mileage Bank. JAL is already showing up in the app, possibly a bit early by mistake. An official announcement should come soon.
You can see the transfer partner page for JAL here. Log in first and then click the link, so you can proceed to link accounts. It might be worth waiting for a possible bonus for linking accounts.
The transfer ratio is 1:1, which is in line with most Bilt Rewards transfer partners.
The new addition will let you redeem Bilt Points and fly throughout Asia and beyond with Japan’s premier airline and its extensive partner network. As a member of the oneworld alliance, Japan Airlines connects you to over 1,000 destinations worldwide through its 13 oneworld partners.
Bilt Rewards also made a positive change this week, making it easier to earn Bilt Points on rent payments without having the Bilt Mastercard.
