Don't Let Your Qatar Avios Vanish: A Simple Guide to Keeping Them Alive!
Published on October 5, 2025, 9:55 PM
Qatar Airways Privilege Club has a pretty sweet deal when it comes to your Avios (that's the points currency they use). Unlike some other airlines where your points disappear quickly if you're not careful, Qatar gives you a bit more breathing room. But, you still need to be aware of the rules so you don't accidentally lose those hard-earned Avios! Basically, your Avios will expire after 3 years of inactivity. "Inactivity" means no earning or spending of Avios. The good news? It's super easy to reset that clock. Just earn or redeem even a tiny number of Avios, and the 3-year countdown starts all over again. Think of it as topping up your account with a small amount of Avios to keep them all active. Why does this matter to you? Because those Avios can be used for amazing flights on Qatar Airways and their partners! Letting them expire is like throwing away free travel. So, set a reminder in your calendar to either earn or spend some Avios every couple of years. It could be as simple as transferring points from a credit card partner or using them for a small purchase through the Qatar Airways online store. Easy peasy!
