Can You Transfer Points Between Airlines?
BilTrip Guide #015. Updated September 2026.
Can You Transfer Airline Miles Between Airlines?
Usually not. Direct transfers, partner-airline redemptions, bank or hotel conversions and shared currencies such as Avios are distinct concepts.
Airline Alliance Does Not Mean Transferable Miles
Alliance membership does not automatically allow one airline programme's currency to move to another.
Avios Is an Important Shared-Currency Case
Eligible participating accounts can move Avios under current programme rules because they share the currency.
Can You Use Miles on Another Airline Without Transferring Them?
Potentially through partner awards; the miles remain inside the original programme.
Where BilTrip Fits
BilTrip cannot be described as moving miles between airline programmes. Future conversions will follow officially announced rules.
