Emirates Skywards is paying bonus Miles on hotel stays and car rentals booked from October 29 to November 30, 2026, according to Emirates's press release. Stays and rentals have to be completed by January 31, 2027. Emirates Holidays packages have a shorter window and must be booked by November 26. If you're planning winter travel, check these offers before you book.

Deal Details

Emirates's release lists these offers:

  • 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.
  • ALL Accor: 25% bonus Miles when you convert ALL Accor Reward points into Skywards Miles.
  • Car rentals: double Skywards Miles with SIXT, Europcar, Avis, Budget and Hertz.

The dates differ by offer. Hotel and car rental bookings count when they're made between October 29 and November 30, 2026, for stays and rentals completed by January 31, 2027. Emirates Holidays packages must be booked between October 29 and November 26, 2026, for travel until January 31, 2027.

How to Take Advantage

  1. Look up the offers on Emirates.com before you book.
  2. Pick the booking route that matches your trip: Emirates Skywards Hotels, Emirates Holidays, Booking.com, IHG, or one of the five car rental brands.
  3. Book inside the window for that offer, and make sure the stay or rental ends by January 31, 2027.
  4. If you hold ALL Accor Reward points and want Skywards Miles, convert them to get the 25% bonus.

Why This Deal Matters

The useful part of this release is the spread. Hotels, packages and rental cars each have their own bonus, so a member with a trip already on the calendar can look for the partner that fits the booking rather than changing the trip to fit the offer.

That also sets the test. A bonus is worth chasing when the stay or rental was going to happen anyway and the partner's price is competitive. If you'd have to pay noticeably more to earn the extra Miles, compare the total cost before you commit.

The ALL Accor offer works differently: it's a 25% bonus when you convert ALL Accor Reward points into Skywards Miles, not a bonus on a booking. It only matters if you already hold ALL Accor Reward points and would rather have them as Skywards Miles.

Separately, Emirates has a Skywards promotion tied to time spent in Dubai, which we cover in our Emirates mile per minute in Dubai alert.

What to Do Before November 30

If you're a Skywards member with a hotel stay or a rental car coming up before the end of January, price it through one of the partners above and book by November 30. Book an Emirates Holidays package by November 26. If you're not traveling before January 31, 2027, you can skip the hotel, holiday and car rental offers.
