Do AAdvantage miles expire?
Yes. American AAdvantage miles expire after 24 months with no earning or redemption activity, and any qualifying activity resets the clock on the full balance. AAdvantage credit-card holders and members under 21 are exempt, so their miles stay alive however long the account sits idle.
GuideDo Hyatt points expire?
Yes. World of Hyatt points expire after 24 consecutive months of account inactivity. Any earning or redemption activity resets the clock on the whole balance, and holding a Hyatt credit card keeps the account active on its own. There is no fixed expiry date, only the inactivity window.
GuideDo United miles expire?
No. United MileagePlus miles do not expire; United dropped its 18-month inactivity rule in August 2019 and has not reinstated it. A balance survives an idle account indefinitely. What it does not survive is devaluation — United prices awards dynamically, so miles held for years tend to buy less.
GuideDo Chase points expire?
No. Chase Ultimate Rewards points do not expire while the card account they sit in stays open, and there is no inactivity clock. Closing the card forfeits them, so move them to another Ultimate Rewards card or redeem them before you close it; an account Chase closes for missed payments forfeits them too.
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 are AAdvantage miles worth?
An American AAdvantage mile is typically worth about 1.5 cents — between the two US reference valuations, which disagree here — so 25,000 miles come to roughly $375. Cheap domestic economy lands nearer 1.2 cents and international business around 1.8 cents. The calculator converts any balance into dollars, pounds and euros.
GuideHow to earn AAdvantage miles
American AAdvantage members earn 5 miles per $1 on American Airlines fares, rising to 7, 8, 9 and 11 with Gold, Platinum, Platinum Pro and Executive Platinum status; basic economy earns none. Partner-airline flights earn by distance and cabin, and Citi points transfer in at 1:1, Marriott points at 3:1.
GuideChase transfer partners
Chase Ultimate Rewards points transfer to 14 partners: ten airlines, including United, Southwest, British Airways, Air Canada Aeroplan and Flying Blue, and four hotel programs — IHG, Marriott, Wyndham and World of Hyatt. All are 1:1 except Hyatt, which is 4:3 from a Sapphire Preferred or Ink Business Preferred by 1 October 2026.
GuideHow to earn United miles
Since April 2026, United pays by fare, status and whether you hold a United credit card: general members earn 3 miles per $1 without one and 6 with one, rising to 9 and 12 for Premier 1K. Basic Economy earns less, and nothing for general members without a card. Chase points transfer in at 1:1.
ToolWhat are Hyatt points worth?
A World of Hyatt point is typically worth about 1.5 cents — the most valuable hotel currency — so 50,000 points come to roughly $750. Published valuations run from 1.4 to 1.8 cents. Low-category hotels land nearer 1.2 cents and top-category stays at busy dates around 2 cents. The calculator converts any Hyatt balance into dollars, pounds and euros.
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.
GuideHow to book Hyatt award nights
Hyatt award nights cost 3,000 to 75,000 points on the five-tier chart that started on 20 May 2026: each of eight categories has Lowest, Low, Moderate, Upper and Top prices set by demand. Book the free-night rate on hyatt.com; points stays carry no resort fee, and Chase points top up a balance at 1:1 or 4:3 depending on the card.
