Do IHG points expire?
Yes. IHG One Rewards points expire after 12 months with no account activity — the shortest window among the major hotel programs. Any earning or redemption resets it. IHG Elite members and IHG One Rewards Premier cardholders, who hold Platinum Elite, are exempt and keep their points regardless.
GuideDo Alaska miles expire?
No. Alaska dropped its 24-month inactivity rule in April 2023, and under the renamed Atmos Rewards program the terms state points have no expiration date and may remain in an account indefinitely. An idle Alaska balance is safe, so the only real risk to it is program devaluation.
ToolNectar to Avios converter
Nectar and Avios convert in fixed blocks: 400 Nectar points become 250 Avios, and 250 Avios become 300 Nectar. The rate is not symmetrical, so converting back and forth loses value each time. The converter runs both directions in those set blocks and shows what any balance becomes.
ToolWhat can my Virgin Points do?
Virgin Points book partner flights on fixed charts: Delta One between New York and London is 47,500 points one-way off-peak, Delta flights within the US start at 7,500, and ANA business from Los Angeles to Tokyo is 52,500. Amex, Chase, Bilt and Citi points transfer in at 1:1, and the tool sorts trips by what your balance reaches.

Fourteen airlines are 1:1, including Air Canada Aeroplan, Flying Blue, Avianca, British Airways, Singapore and Turkish; Emirates, EVA Air and Japan Airlines are 4:3, and JetBlue 5:3.

ToolWhat are IHG points worth?
An IHG One Rewards point is typically worth about 0.55 cents, between published valuations of 0.5 and 0.6 cents, so 100,000 points come to roughly $550. Budget brands and cheap dates land nearer 0.45 cents, and better hotels or the fourth night free around 0.65 cents. The calculator converts any IHG balance into dollars, pounds and euros.
ToolWhat are Alaska miles worth?
An Alaska Atmos Rewards point, formerly a Mileage Plan mile, is typically worth about 1.5 cents, so 50,000 points come to roughly $750. Domestic economy lands nearer 1.25 cents, and business class on Alaska's oneworld partners around 1.8 cents. The calculator converts any Alaska balance into dollars, pounds and euros at all three rates.
GuideDo Nectar points expire?
Not on a date, but you can still lose them. Nectar points carry no expiry date, yet Nectar may close an account with no points earned or spent for 12 months in a row — and the points are lost with it. Scanning your Nectar card or app at Sainsbury's, Argos or eBay once a year keeps the balance safe.
