想要避免飞行里程过期，关键是定期进行能够重置里程有效期的活动。
常见里程计划的保活规则
- Flying Blue（法航‑荷航）：自2026年5月4日起，任何符合条件的活动（如预订航班、酒店、租车或在合作伙伴处消费）都会将全部里程的有效期统一延长至24个月，且此规则同样适用于已有里程。
- Frontier Miles：只要每12个月内通过Frontier World Mastercard等方式产生累计活动，里程就不会过期。
- Etihad Guest：每18个月必须通过实际航班计入里程才能重置有效期，其他类型的活动无法延长。
- 全日空（ANA）Mileage Club：里程在36个月后硬性失效，除非是Diamond会员或累计里程达百万的会员，否则无法通过活动延长。
- 美国航空（AAdvantage）：里程在24个月无活动后失效，任何赚取或兑换行为都会将有效期再延长24个月；21岁以下会员以及持有美国航空联名信用卡的主卡持有人则永不失效。
- Avianca Lifemiles：里程在12个月无活动后失效，仅通过赚取里程（而非兑换）才能重置有效期。
延长里程有效期的实用方法
- 使用联名信用卡消费：大多数航空公司将信用卡刷卡视为合格活动，可即时重置里程时效。
- 预订合作伙伴服务：酒店、租车、购物等合作伙伴的消费同样能刷新里程有效期，尤其适用于Flying Blue等统一规则的计划。
- 购买或转入里程：在多数计划中，购买里程或从其他积分体系转入里程会立即重置到期时间。
- 捐赠里程：将里程捐赠给慈善机构也会被计为合格活动，帮助防止失效。
- 定期检查账户：关注里程到期提醒，确保在到期前的规定时间窗口内完成任意一次合格活动。
具体操作建议
- 设定提醒：在手机或日历中标记每个里程计划的失效周期（如12、18、24或36个月），提前一个月安排一次活动。
- 利用信用卡账单周期：在信用卡账单关闭后几天内进行消费，确保里程在下一个账单周期内到账并刷新有效期。
- 多渠道赚取：结合飞行、酒店、租车和日常购物等多种渠道，确保即使某一渠道的里程未使用，也有其他渠道的活动保持账户活跃。
- 关注政策更新：航空公司会不定期调整里程有效期规则，及时阅读官方公告以免错过新的保活机会。
