FAQ
Here you can find answers to the questions asked most frequently in connection with the OK Plus programme.
Is membership in OK Plus free?
Yes. You do not pay anything for your membership in the OK Plus programme. It is a loyalty programme, to which anyone who complies with the given rules may become a member.
Is it possible that my unused miles will expire after some time?
Yes. Each mile in the programme is valid for 24 months. In case a mile is not redeemed during this period, it expires and cannot be used anymore.
In case no OK-coded and OK-operated flight is noted in your account within the past 24 months, all miles (irrespective of the date of their crediting) automatically expire and cannot be used anymore.
What is my PIN code for?
Your PIN code serves not only for accessing your OK Plus profile on the Internet, but also for booking and redeeming all your rewards in the OK Plus Programme and for changing your personal information; please keep it in a safe place, somewhere other than your OK Plus Card.
What should I do if I forget my PIN code?
If you forget your PIN code, you can request to have it sent by e-mail at www.okplus.cz or use the OK Plus Service Centre telephone line +420 239 007 500, where we will arrange to send you your PIN by post. For that reason, it is good to keep your contact information in the OK Plus profile current.
What is the difference between the “Final Balance” and “Card Eligibility“?
The Actual balance of your account includes miles for flights with Czech Airlines and all of the programme’s airline partners as well as promo and elite bonuses and miles for using the services of non-airline partners.
The card eligibility amount (SkyTeam miles) only includes miles for flights with Czech Airlines and partners from the SkyTeam Alliance. The required card eligibility threshold must be “flown” over the course of a calendar year.
What is the difference between “Miles” and “SkyTeam Miles”?
You earn miles for flights with Czech Airlines, with our partners from the SkyTeam Alliance, and for flights with other airlines, as well as for using the services of all other OK Plus partners. Miles serve for redeeming rewards.
You get SkyTeam Miles only for flights with Czech Airlines and its partners from the SkyTeam Alliance. These miles make you eligible for obtaining a higher-level card. For you to receive a higher-level card, the relevant number of miles must be collected during one calendar year.
How do I ascertain the current balance of my account?
All OK Plus members are informed about the miles credited and about the balance amount through an Account Statement. An electronic Account Statement is sent free of charge every month to the e-mail address provided by the member.
How should I proceed when miles have not been credited to my account?
Within 12 months of the date of the flight, send us the documents of the flights flown (copies of tickets and original boarding passes) or, in the case of using our partners’ services, receipts, and other documents confirming your use of the services for which your have not been credited miles.
Is it possible that my miles were not credited, even though my membership number had been entered properly?
Yes. In spite of all our efforts, sometimes your miles are not credited due to a system error.
In case you go on business trips and your company is a member of our company programme OK Plus Corporate, to which it already earns points for your ticket, no miles or segments are credited to your OK Plus account.
