Skywards offers members a 'one-off' credit for travel on Emirates or SriLankan taken up to 60 days prior to date of enrolment, providing they can supply the original ticket and boarding card. However all retrospective mileage credits must be claimed within six months of the qualifying transaction date.

You can earn Skywards Miles on Emirates Airlines, Sri Lankan Airlines and all our partner airlines. You are encouraged to check with your travel agent or the relevant airline for mileage accrual eligibility when making your reservation.

If you hold an Emirates Skywards co-brand credit/charge card from Citibank, ABK, EBI or SCB your Skywards Miles will be automatically credited into your Skywards account each month. If you hold one of our other partner credit cards, please contact your credit card provider to request for your credit card points to be transferred to your Skywards account.

There may also be a name mismatch between the ticket and membership account.

Your Miles are valid for three years from the date you earned them, so as long as they are in your account and you have enough, you can spend them at any time within this period.
