Points can be transferred from other loyalty programmes including, Air Miles, Citibank, Emirates NBD, Etisalat and many other international partners. Visit here for a full list of partners.
Note: The tier miles will be capped at 20,000 tier miles.

30% Off Miles Redemption
Etihad is also currently offering a sale on miles redemption with a 30% discount on award tickets, hotel stays and car rentals when booking with Travel Rewards, valid for travel until 31st May 2021.
There are lot of award seats available at the moment. However you’d need to have a negative COVID PCR Test to board the flight to/transit Abu Dhabi.
- Abu Dhabi to London one way in Business cost 43,873 miles after discount
- Abu Dhabi to Geneva one way in First Class cost 59,607 miles after discount
- Abu Dhabi to New York one way in First Class cost 95,613 miles after discount
Currently Etihads A380 fleet is grounded so there are just a handful routes with First Class, mainly to New York and Geneva. London is currently only served by a 2 class B787 dreamliner.
Did a 40k mile transfer from Citi, and didn’t get the tier miles (only got the miles). Etihad representative asked for a link to the promotion. Do you have one to share ?

ya it shod end in 2021
Thanks for this. Will status be good through the end of 2021?
Yes good for 1 year
There is a cap of 20,000 tier miles earned from this promotion…so you CAN NOT just transfer 25k, 50k or 125k and earn their respective status.
sam, are there any benefits from having Etihad Guest status when flying any other airlines? In other words, do any other airlines extend benefits to Etihad elite status holders?
Check the comprehensive benefits and status on Etihad Guest page.
