ANA Mileage Club at a glance
- ANA Mileage Club has 3 elite tiers, from Bronze at 30,000 Premium Points to Diamond at 100,000 Premium Points.
- Annual qualifying period — points accumulate across the full year.
- Platinum (50,000 Premium Points) is the lowest tier with Star Alliance Gold lounge access.
- On the reference route LHR–NYC (JFK or EWR), flown by United Airlines, one economy return earns 7,712 Premium Points in booking class Y, the highest-earning economy class we hold for that flight. That is 4 returns to Bronze from zero by Premium Points alone; Bronze also has conditions beyond the threshold, listed under the tier ladder.
Elite tiers
| Tier | Premium Points required from zero |
|---|---|
| Bronze | 30,000 |
| Platinum Star Alliance Gold | 50,000 |
| Diamond | 100,000 |
Platinum confers Star Alliance Gold — the lowest tier in this programme with alliance-wide lounge access. Alliance mapping last verified 12 July 2026. Conditions beyond the threshold: At least half the Premium Points must be earned on ANA Group flights. Compare lounge access across programmes →
Requirements beyond the threshold
- Bronze — At least 15,000 Premium Points on ANA Group flights.
- Platinum — At least 25,000 Premium Points on ANA Group flights.
- Diamond — At least 50,000 Premium Points on ANA Group flights.
These apply in addition to the Premium Points figure, so reaching the number alone does not confer the tier.
At least half of your Premium Points must be earned on ANA Group-operated flights (Bronze 15,000 of 30,000, Platinum 25,000 of 50,000, Diamond 50,000 of 100,000); ANA Gold Card and ANA Card Premium holders are exempt at Bronze only. Premium Points run 1 January to 31 December, do not carry over and decide the following year's status, which runs 1 April to 31 March; reaching a threshold before the end of December grants the status immediately, through to that 31 March. Premium Points are sector distance × the booking-class accrual rate × a route ratio (×2 Japan domestic, ×1.5 ANA-operated Japan–Asia/Oceania, ×1 everything else, including all Star Alliance partner flights), plus flat Boarding Points per sector. ANA's accrual table is dated December 2018 and covers flights departing Japan, and we approximate ANA's ticketed point mileage with great-circle distance, so figures may differ from ANA's. Holders of an ANA Card issued in Japan have a second route to every tier, which is not modelled, and crediting a flight to a partner programme forfeits its Premium Points.

Reaching this status
ANA Mileage Club publishes conditions that sit alongside the Premium Points threshold, so reaching the number on its own does not confer the tier. They are shown here and never scored — the Lark Score measures Premium Points earned and nothing else. Where the published wording says more than the summary line, the wording governs.
Own-flight minimum
- At least 50% of your Premium Points within 12 months on flights marketed and operated by All Nippon Airways.
Applies both when qualifying and when keeping a tier.
Published wording, with our annotations
Flight-only status route: half of each tier's annual Premium Points must come from ANA Group-operated flights — Bronze 30,000 PP of which 15,000 own-metal, Platinum 50,000/25,000, Diamond 100,000/50,000 (Japanese page, 「うちANAグループ運航便ご利用分」). NH-coded flights operated by the seven domestic codeshare affiliates (IBEX, AIRDO, Solaseed Air, StarFlyer, Oriental Air Bridge, Japan Air Commuter, Amakusa Airlines) count as ANA Group-operated. ANA Gold Card / ANA Card Premium holders are exempt at Bronze only.Source for Own-flight minimum (opens in a new tab) · Checked 31 August 2026
What a return earns
- On the reference route LHR–NYC (JFK or EWR), flown by United Airlines, one economy return earns 7,712 Premium Points in booking class Y, the highest-earning economy class we hold for that flight.
- LHR–CDG: no figure — no rule captured. No published rate captured for this carrier pair in any of the cabin's booking classes — not a statement that it earns nothing.
| Tier | Premium Points | Economy returns |
|---|---|---|
| Bronze | 30,000 | 4 by Premium Points alone, plus the conditions under the tier ladder |
| Platinum | 50,000 | 7 by Premium Points alone, plus the conditions under the tier ladder |
| Diamond | 100,000 | 13 by Premium Points alone, plus the conditions under the tier ladder |
