New SkyMiles Award Structure
Northwest is introducing a third mileage award level to synchronize award prices with Delta. The new mileage award requirements will offer three tiers of award availability and more award travel options in Coach Class.
Effective for award tickets issued on/after January 15, 2009, the new award structure has three tiers starting at 12,500, 20,000, and 30,000 miles for one-way travel (based on roundtrip purchase) within the US 48, Alaska and Canada to destinations worldwide. Awards not originating or terminating in the US 48, Alaska, or Canada often require more mileage.
