  • BD Query

    Quick questions ...

    I have a paid tix SIN-NRT. However, I like my friend to join me. Will I be able to make a BD redemption booking for my friend using my BD miles (ie 1 pax)?

    The reason I ask is that normally the account holder is also travelling using the redemption but not in this case.

    Can someone also shed light about what I very briefly read about buying BD miles for another person? Thanks.

    ...gotta dash.

    Yes, you can redeem your BD miles for a ticket for someone else.

      Would they require the member (him/herself) to travel with?

      I am planning to spend those 9K freebie miles in my sister and mum's account for myself,could I just do this online (log on their account) and pay the surcharges by my credit card?

        Depends on which "batch" you got. Some have the "can only be used for self" condition attached to them.

          You can't redeem *A awards online. You have to call DC and do that. Also, I think you'll have to get yourself "authorized" to issue awards from your sister's and mum's account, which they can reportedly do by calling DC.

            Presumambly it'll be easier to just ask them to phone, authenticate themselves (BD account number, name, address and DOB) and pass the phone over to you.

                  She will NEVER go for FIRST. She gave me such grief last year that I won't do it as she says she does not deserve it.

                    Question

                    As a BD Gold member, when flying SQ Y and crediting the miles to BD, will I get the 25% bonus?
                    Thank you!
