Earning and using points

Air China and Shenzhen Airlines share PhoenixMiles with other participating carriers. Eligible flying earns mileage, redeemable for flight awards and upgrades. Eligibility, booking class, peak-season rules and the operating carrier affect redemption. Shenzhen's own-flight awards require ZH-operated, ZH-coded direct flights; codeshares are excluded from that product. Do not treat kilometre-denominated balances as another program's miles.

A practical booking sequence

  1. Choose the actual operating flight, dates, cabin and passenger count. A codeshare number can have different earning rules.
  2. Search through the program you will spend from. Airline seats for sale and reward seats are separate inventories.
  3. Compare the points quote plus taxes and fees with the cash trip you would otherwise buy.
  4. Check transfers, names, fare rules and ticketing deadlines before moving points. Keep the final booking confirmation.
