Emirates Skywards is paying bonus miles on hotels, holiday packages and car rentals through the end of November. The airline announced the winter offers on Oct. 29, 2026, in a release on its media center.
Members can earn double miles on stays and rentals with some partners, 50% bonus miles on two Emirates booking channels, and a 25% bonus when they convert ALL Accor points into Skywards miles.
The full list of offers
Here is what Emirates lists in its release:
- Emirates Skywards Hotels: 50% bonus miles on hotel stays.
- Emirates Holidays: 50% bonus miles on holiday packages.
- Booking.com: Double miles on hotel stays.
- IHG Hotels & Resorts: Double miles on eligible hotel stays.
- Car rentals: Double miles with SIXT, Europcar, Avis, Budget and Hertz.
- ALL Accor: 25% bonus miles when converting ALL Accor points into Skywards miles.
Emirates Skywards is the loyalty program of both Emirates and flydubai, so the miles can go toward flights on either airline.
Booking and travel dates
The dates are not the same for every offer, so read them closely.
Hotel and car rental bookings must be made between Oct. 29 and Nov. 30, 2026. The stay or rental must be completed by Jan. 31, 2027.
Emirates Holidays packages have a shorter window. You must book between Oct. 29 and Nov. 26, 2026, for travel until Jan. 31, 2027.
That gives members time to book holiday trips in December and January while still earning the bonus.
The ALL Accor conversion bonus
The Accor offer is the one most points fans will look at first, since it works like a transfer bonus.
On Emirates' ALL Accor partner page, the standard rate is 4,000 ALL Accor points for 2,000 Skywards miles. The minimum conversion is 4,000 points. With the 25% bonus, the same 4,000 points become 2,500 miles, as LoyaltyLobby also noted on X.
A few rules from the Emirates page are worth knowing:
- The name on your ALL Accor account must match the name on your Skywards account.
- Conversions can't be reversed once they go through.
Accor points can also be spent directly on Accor hotel stays, so this bonus makes the most sense for members who need a few more miles to finish an Emirates award. Moving a large balance just because of the bonus is a bigger call.
How to get the double miles
Emirates does not spell out every partner's rules in the release. For the hotel and car offers, the safest path is to book through the partner link on emirates.com and add your Skywards number to the booking. Check the terms on each partner page before you book. Some rates and some hotels may not qualify, and IHG's offer is for eligible stays only.
If you also hold status or points with IHG, check how earning works with that program before you choose Skywards miles. Some hotel programs let you earn airline miles in place of hotel points, not on top of them.
Who this is for
These offers are best for travelers who already plan to book a hotel or rental car this winter and who collect Skywards miles. Double miles on a hotel stay can add up, but it rarely changes which hotel you should book.
The Emirates Holidays and Emirates Skywards Hotels offers pay a 50% bonus, but you book through Emirates' own channels. Compare those prices with booking direct before you commit.
This is a separate deal from the Emirates Mile-A-Minute offer for Dubai stopovers, which has its own Nov. 5 booking deadline.
What people are saying on X
Emirates promoted the winter offers on its own X account on Oct. 29.
