  • Annual qualifying period — points accumulate across the full year.
  • Elite Gold (70 Elite Points) is the lowest tier with Oneworld Sapphire lounge access.

Elite Gold confers Oneworld Sapphire — the lowest tier in this programme with alliance-wide lounge access. Alliance mapping last verified 12 July 2026. Compare lounge access across programmes →

Thresholds apply to Elite Points earned from 1 January 2026 and set your tier for the 2027 membership year; points earned in 2025 were scored against the previous ladder (Silver 30, Gold 60, Platinum 100) for the 2026 card. Elite Points reset to zero each 1 January, and up to 50% of the requalification requirement carries forward (Silver 18, Gold 35, Platinum 70); principal Enrich credit cardholders requalify at roughly 30% less (25, 49, 98). Elite Points are earned only on Malaysia Airlines, Firefly and oneworld flights, in Economy, Premium Economy, Business and Business Suite, and on Malaysia Airlines' own flights booking classes U, I, W, E, X and T earn nothing. We apply that exclusion to Malaysia Airlines' own letters only: Enrich publishes no letter exclusions for oneworld partners, whose flights earn by the cabin the letter is sold in.
