Book return flights with Emirates or flydubai by November 5 to earn up to 7,200 bonus Skywards Miles during a Dubai winter stay.
Emirates Skywards, the loyalty programme of Emirates and flydubai, has relaunched its ‘Mile-A-Minute’ offer, rewarding members with one Skywards Mile for every minute spent in Dubai, up to a maximum of 7,200 bonus Miles.
The limited-time promotion coincides with Dubai’s winter season of festivals, events and outdoor experiences. The offer was first introduced in 2021.
Bonus Miles are earned in addition to those accumulated on eligible Emirates and flydubai tickets. The promotion applies across all cabin classes and fare types.
How much can you earn?
The 7,200-Mile cap is equivalent to 120 hours, or five days, in Dubai. Members staying longer can still earn the maximum bonus, while those on shorter city breaks or stopovers can collect Miles based on the time they spend in the city.
The offer is open to Emirates Skywards members residing outside the UAE. To qualify, members must:
- Register by November 5, 2026, through the Emirates or flydubai website or app.
- Book an eligible return flight originating outside the UAE between October 21 and November 5, 2026.
- Travel to Dubai between October 21 and December 13, 2026, and stay for a minimum of 24 hours and a maximum of 30 days.
Bonus Miles will be calculated using scheduled arrival and departure times in Dubai and credited automatically after the stay. Travellers who are not yet members can join Skywards for free and register before the booking deadline.
More ways to earn Miles
Visitors can also collect Miles through participating Skywards partners across Dubai:
- Hotels: Eligible stays at Atlantis The Palm earn Miles.
- Tours: Members can earn or redeem Miles on selected desert safaris and sightseeing tours with Arabian Adventures.
- Shopping: Eligible purchases at Dubai Mall earn Miles.
- Everyday spending: Through the Skywards Everyday app, members can save up to five payment cards and earn Miles at hundreds of participating brands across the UAE, covering dining, shopping, wellness and leisure.
