How many Status Miles do I need for Safar Flyer status?

From a standing start: Silver 20,000 Status Miles, Gold 35,000 Status Miles, Platinum 75,000 Status Miles. The number alone is not always enough. Silver: At least 10,000 Status Miles and/or 2 flights on Royal Air Maroc metal. Gold: At least 17,500 Status Miles or 10 flights on Royal Air Maroc metal. Platinum: At least 37,500 Status Miles or 20 flights on Royal Air Maroc metal.

Which Safar Flyer tier gives lounge access?

Gold, at 35,000 Status Miles, is the lowest tier that confers Oneworld Sapphire, with lounge access across the alliance. Conditions beyond the threshold: Minimum 17,500 Status Miles (or 10 Status Flights) on Royal Air Maroc metal.

How many flights does it take to reach Safar Flyer status?

On the reference route LHR–NYC (JFK or EWR), flown by British Airways, one economy return earns 6,912 Status Miles in booking class Y, the highest-earning economy class we hold for that flight. On that basis, the economy returns needed from zero are: Silver 3 (plus conditions), Gold 6 (plus conditions), Platinum 11 (plus conditions). Tiers marked with conditions also need more than the points; see the tier ladder. Other cabins, classes and routes earn differently; the calculator on this page prices your own trip.

Keeping a tier is a different bar from reaching it. The last column is what Safar Flyer publishes for a member who already holds the tier, over the same qualification window as the reaching figure. A dash means no retention figure comparable with the reaching one is shown for that rung, not that renewal is automatic; where the programme publishes one over a different window, its note gives it.

Requirements beyond the threshold

Silver — At least 10,000 Status Miles and/or 2 flights on Royal Air Maroc metal.
Gold — At least 17,500 Status Miles or 10 flights on Royal Air Maroc metal.
Platinum — At least 37,500 Status Miles or 20 flights on Royal Air Maroc metal.

These apply in addition to the Status Miles figure, so reaching the number alone does not confer the tier.

Each tier can also be reached by status flights — Silver 15, Gold 30, Platinum 75 — and each needs a minimum earned on Royal Air Maroc's own flights (Silver 10,000 Status Miles and/or 2 flights; Gold 17,500 / 10 flights; Platinum 37,500 / 20 flights). Renewal is lower at every rung: Silver 18,000 miles or 13 flights, Gold 32,000 or 28, Platinum 70,000 or 70, with the same Royal Air Maroc minimums. Miles are valid for one calendar year (1 January to 31 December). Royal Air Maroc's own-metal earning is keyed on fare family (Eco Essential 50%, Classic 100%, Flex 150%; Biz Classic 150%, Flex 200% Status Miles), not on a booking letter.
