I. Award points additional information:
1. Award points earned by flights including base points, status bonus points and promotion bonus points. Award points can be used to redeem award tickets, cabin upgrades and award items.
2. Award points will be earned based on eligible spend and membership status while flying on all regular “HX” flights operated by Hong Kong Airlines and other Fortune Wings Club member airlines.
3. Out of the total ticket price, the eligible spend can be used to calculate award points. Eligible spend includes base fare and carrier-imposed surcharges paid for your ticket, such as fuel surcharges. Government-imposed taxes and fees, such as a transportation tax, carrier-imposed fees for other products or services will not be awarded points, including but not limited to the following: ticket change fees, excess baggage fees, seat selection payments, upgrade payments, in-flight food and beverage purchases and service charges.
4. Eligible spend uses the HKD when calculating the amount of points to be awarded. If you purchase a ticket in a different currency, the base fare and carrier-imposed surcharges will be exchanged to HKD and this amount will be awarded to members as points. The exchange rates are published by IATA.
5. Eligible spend is treated 10 HKD as the minimum unit used when calculating award points. Therefore, portions of the eligible spend that are less than 10 HKD will be treated as 10 HKD. However, if portions of the eligible spend are less than 1 HKD, the system will round the eligible spend down to the nearest 10 HKD increment.
6. Certain specialty tickets may earn award points based on flight distance and fare class. The Specific award point accrual standards are based on valid regulations of such product. When award points earning is based on flight distance, the standard of base points is same as that of status qualifying points. Silver card members can get 25% bonus of base points and silver/ Platinum card members can get 50% bonus of base points.
7. Children tickets will earn award points based on eligible spend and membership status.
8. Points for segments operated by Hong Kong Airlines and other Fortune Wings Club member airlines with the code “HX” in the interline ticket will be awarded based on eligible spend and membership status. If the segment does not specify eligible spend of this segments, the eligible spend will be calculated based on the percentage of the flight distance of this segment out of the total flight distance, which will then be multiplied by the total eligible spend of the ticket including all segments.
9. You can earn up to 75,000 award points per ticket, including any membership status bonus points and excluding bonuses from applicable promotions.
II. Status qualifying points and segments additional information:
1. Status Qualifying Points (SQPs) represent a percentage of the actual miles flown (including applicable minimum mileage guarantees) based on Fortune Wings Club member airlines or partner airlines and the booking code purchased. SQPs are only used to determine membership status, not redemption.
2. Status Qualifying Segments(SQSs) are segments you earn on eligible purchased tickets for flights on affiliate member airlines or partner airlines of the Fortune Wings Club. SQSs are used to determine membership status.
3. Booking Code refers to the code indicated in the column of “CLASS” on the ticket. Please pay special attention, as it affects your SQPs and SQSs accrual.
4. SQPs are accumulated in “kilometer” and in accordance with the "Ticketed Point Mileage” (TPM) regularly published by the IATA. In case of flight distance under 500 kilometers, K will be calculated to mean 500 kilometers.
5. You can accumulate SQPs and SQSs while taking regular “HX” flights operated by Hong Kong Airlines.
6. Children tickets could earn 75% of the SQPs according to the above point-earning standards.
