If you have miles with Air Canada, Alaska, Delta, or United, you can transfer the miles directly from your own account into Miles4Migrants’ account. Then, you’re all set! Miles4Migrants will have access to your miles to be able to book flights for someone to start their new beginning. Because using pooled miles means Miles4Migrants doesn’t have to go through donors to book a ticket, flight recipients can get to safe homes faster.

If you have miles or points from a rewards program OTHER than Delta, United, Alaska, or Air Canada, you can make a pledge now and help book a ticket later. Once you pledge your miles, Miles4Migrants will work to find a flight recipient and contact you as soon as they have an individual or family who is in need of your pledged miles. Depending on the type of miles you pledge, the Miles4Migrants Booking Team will either book the flight for you – with your help – or work with you to book the flight yourself. Either way, you’ll help someone be on their way to their new beginning!

If you have a travel voucher from Alaska, Allegiant, American, British Airways, Delta Airlines, Jetblue, Southwest, or United, you can make a pledge now and help book a ticket later. Please note, there are various types of credit you can receive from airlines. To make sure yours is eligible, visit this page with more information.

Once you pledge your travel voucher, Miles4Migrants will work to find a flight recipient and contact you as soon as we have an individual or family who is in need of your pledged voucher. Depending on the type of voucher you pledge, the Miles4Migrants Booking Team will either book the flight for you – with your help – or work with you to book the flight yourself. Either way, you’ll help someone be on their way to their new beginning!

Cash donations are a big help in addition to miles. While frequent flyer miles cover most airfare expenses, cash is needed for each ticket to cover taxes, departure and arrival fees, and fuel surcharges. Our average cost of taxes and fees per flight booked with miles is $33.80 per person. In certain circumstances, booking a flight with cash instead of miles/points is more cost effective, so your cash contribution may be used to book airfare as well. $200 is around the cost of one ticket for an Afghan evacuee to fly from an airport near a military base to their final destination.
