I recently booked a ticket using the air india maharaja club and wanted to know if I will earn maharaja points on all the flight bookings?
You can earn Maharaja Points for flights booked using Cash or a Cash + Points booking on Air India and with Star Alliance Airline Partners. Please note that you will not be able to earn points for Reward Tickets.
Ensure that your Maharaja Club ID is submitted with your booking. You may also discover how many points you can earn on your next flight using the Points Calculator.
As a member of the Air India Maharaja Club, will I earn Maharaja Points on all flights I take with Air India, or are there certain fare types and routes where points aren’t credited?
That’s a very important question, especially if you want to maximize the value of your Air India Maharaja Club membership.
Earning on Most Flights:
As a Maharaja Club member, you do earn Maharaja Points on almost all Air India flights, whether domestic or international. The number of points you earn depends mainly on your fare class, route distance, and membership tier.
Exceptions to Keep in Mind:
There are a few cases where you may not earn points:
• Discounted or promotional tickets that specifically mention “non-eligible for miles.”
• Certain award tickets or complimentary tickets.
• Some deeply discounted economy fares may earn reduced points compared to standard fares.
Beyond Air India:
You also earn points on Star Alliance partner flights, but again, the accrual depends on the partner airline’s agreement with Air India and the fare class you book.
Tip from Experience:
Before booking, it’s a good idea to check the earning chart on Air India’s website. That way, you’ll know exactly how many Maharaja Points you’ll get for your ticket, and you can make informed choices.
