Most awaited Axis Edge to Transfer Partners Timeline

[RewardsAlert]

Axis Bank Edge Reward Points to Transfer Partners Timeline:

Usually the Edge Reward Points/ Edge Miles have an official transfer period of up to 15 days but transfer to different partners varies with each one.

I have accumulated a list for these Tranfer timelines based on the experience of people in our community!

The lighting fast transfer award goes to:
(Note: there might be some exceptions in rare cases, but 99% is same for everyone)

Air Canada
Air France
Marriott Bonvoy
IHG
Etihad
United
Qantas
Spicejet
Wyndham

Transaction + 1-2 working Days

Accor
Qatar Air
Singapore Airlines
Turkish
Vistara

Transaction + 1-7 working days

ITC
There is a hidden fact about ITC, that they initiate Green points transfer manually, and Friday is the day when it happens every week.
So, even if you initiate a Transfer on Thursday, it might get reflected on Friday 😉

Not all partners are listed in this post, but new partners will keep on updating as people post their new experiences.
Do not forget to comment your opinions and experiences with any of these partners if any.

Happy Redemptions coming ahead!
🙌

I am planning to book flight on SQ through United tomorrow. Do you think the website will not work? I need to call them on their India reservations number?

Yes, you can

 

[chasni]

What actually happened can you explain? And where do you want to go?. I am also transferring around 2L points tomorrow so need to know the experience before hand. It will be appreciated if you could tell the details.

I was booking a flight from Cambodia to Delhi and it was showing 20K. By the time miles arrived in my account, the miles requirement went up to 37k.

Aeroplan you can redeem by calling them over phone, same is with united too. I did my redemption by calling them.

What number do you call them on? I tried searching for an Indian contact but they only had a Canadian number so I couldn't call them. Please help.

 

[chasni]

For anyone who wants to redeem miles in United: Indian credit cards don't work due to currency issue. The final payment shows the exact same payment amount in INR instead of USD (For e.g., $50 payment request from United shows up as INR 50 on Bank's payment page). So, the transaction never gets processed and the redemption fails. So, you can book the ticket by using a US credit card. I used my friend's card and the ticket was generated.

As mentioned by other members, you can also call their call center and get the ticket generated.

A bit off topic - have you all been recieving the milestone benefits and the accelerated reward points correctly and regularly?

very very strange question. Many will not track their benefits properly. As per the discussions in the community many members reported all the benefits are been receiving correctly. But it's upto each individual to track it correctly.

To track it make an excel and track them, for 4-5 months, because usually all accelerated RP's will be credit within 120 days.

In Ua domestic booking is possible for airindia through phone?

It is... but I think there's a fee for that. Maybe AI is exempt because they're not always bookable online, but I'm not 100% sure. Also the mileage required will be quite absurd. If you can, you should book UK domestic using UA MP. It will cost less miles and (probably a lot) less money.

In this thread i see points transfer to united airlines is almost instant, i transferred in the mng some points when can i expect the credit? any existing experiences of how long it takes?

For domestic AI flight I guess TK provides the best bang for bucks.

For domestic vistara is still the best. TK gives 1:0.6-7 ratio TK is best for international flights by AI.

Not for business class. AI business class cost 12.5k miles whereas Vistara 17.5k.

Transferred 40K miles to United today but didn't receive the instant transfer for some reason. In the past, it has always been transferred instantly.

You need to plan atleast 6 months prior to get at the lowest point level or we have to shell more since we can’t predict when the required miles will increase.

 

[Reward Hunter]

Any hack of using reward points . Booking PAN Pacific Hotels part of UOL group it says.

It changed from 20k to 37k within 24 hours while waiting for transfer of miles to Kris. It was just a bad luck.

Is it changed or economy is not available? it might be showing business class as economy is filled.

It was for economy. My travel is already complete. I booked through United and paid 27.5K miles. Still lower than Kris Flyer

Change billing country to US. Else use an Amex card. Else just call customer care and they will do it.
