JAL Mileage Bank

JAL Mileage Bank spans JAL Group, oneworld, other airlines, JALCARD, e JAL Points, JAL Mall, hotels, cars, finance, retail, dining, lifestyle services, and a separate lifetime Life Status Program.

JMB combines the calendar-year FLY ON Program with lifetime Life Status Points and Star Grades; the annual elite path uses FLY ON Points plus JAL Group minimums or flight-count paths with minimum FLY ON Points.

The tier name is the easy part. Here is the bill for reaching it—and what the program owes you in return.
