Frequently Asked Questions
For the first time, SkyMiles Members living outside of the U.S. will now earn Medallion Status via MQDs. All currencies convert to USD at the standard exchange rate at the time of ticketing and/or purchase and will then convert from $1 USD to $1 MQD (excluding amounts for taxes and government-imposed fees).
Spend on SkyMiles Japan credit cards – including Delta SkyMiles American Express Gold Card and Delta SkyMiles American Express Card issued in Japan, Delta SkyMiles Diners Club Card, Delta SkyMiles JCB Gold Card, Delta SkyMiles JCB Card, Delta SkyMiles Takeoff JCB Card, Delta SkyMiles TRUST CLUB Platinum VISA Card, and Delta SkyMiles TRUST CLUB Gold VISA Card – will earn $1 MQD per 1,000 Japanese yen of eligible purchases charged to one of these cards. Terms and conditions of the applicable card apply.
Eligible purchases for purposes of earning MQDs are purchases made on the listed cards that are also eligible to earn miles, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable card (including any exceptions to eligible purchases).
  • MQDs will be aggregated for all eligible purchases based on the applicable earn period as determined by the respective credit card issuer and posted once a month within 2-4 weeks from the end date of such applicable earn period for each Card Member.
  • The applicable earn period for TRUST CLUB VISA Cards, JCB Cards, and Diners Club Card is referred to as the “monthly billing cycle” for the issuer, and the applicable earn period for American Express Cards issued in Japan is referred to as the “mileage aggregation period,” which is listed on the monthly billing statement for such American Express Cards.
  • Credit card issuers rely on the date submitted to them by the merchant, which may differ from the date a Card Member makes a purchase, to determine the applicable earn period in which the purchase is included.
  • The “transaction date” for all MQDs during the applicable earn period will be the end date of such earn period and MQDs will be counted in the Qualification Year based on this transaction date.
    • Example: If the applicable earn period runs from November 16, 2024 to December 15, 2024, and you make eligible purchases on December 10, 15, and 16 — and these purchases are submitted by the merchant on December 16, 2024 — any earned MQDs on those eligible purchases will be provided after January 15, 2025 (end of the next earn period), at which time the transaction date for all of those MQDs will be “January 15, 2025,” and such MQDs will be counted in the Qualification Year, which begins on January 1, 2025.

No, MQDs will not be earned when a purchase and return are made within the same applicable earn period.

If a return is made during a subsequent earn period, MQDs for the return will be subtracted from MQDs to be earned for the period.
