Emirates Skywards has launched a set of summer promotions giving members more ways to spend their miles across everyday retail, airport services and event access, with most offers running until September 30, 2026.

Through the programme’s Skywards Everyday feature, members can convert 350 Skywards Miles for AED 10 in cashback at participating partners across the UAE, including Careem, Costa Coffee, MMI, BinSina Pharmacy and The Body Shop.

For those who prefer digital spending, the Skywards Miles Mall lets members buy gift cards from Amazon AE, Deliveroo, Apple and Nike, starting from a minimum of 2,000 Miles.

The promotional period also covers Dubai Duty Free purchases, official Emirates merchandise through the Emirates Official Store, and marhaba Airport Meet and Greet services, which are available to passengers flying with Emirates or any other airline.

Emirates Skywards Visa Credit Cardholders in the GCC get an additional layer of value: up to 20 per cent off selected event redemptions through Skywards Exclusives, applicable to events carrying a “Co-Brand Offer” label.

On the earning side, the programme is running what it describes as its biggest Dubai Summer Surprises promotion to date. Until 30 August 2026, members who spend AED 200 or more with participating Skywards Everyday partners or through Skywards Miles Mall UAE are automatically entered into a raffle for 10,000 Skywards Miles.
