Air Europa Fare Families: Lite, Standard and Flex

Air Europa sells fare families by name in each cabin, not booking class letters, and its Suma program pays Miles on the euros you spend. Find the fare family on your booking to see what it includes, as published by Air Europa.

Air Europa fare families

Every fare family on an Air Europa flight earns Suma Miles on the euros spent, at the rate for the cabin (see below). A blank cell means Air Europa's pages do not state it.

  • Booking class letters: Air Europa prints letters only for Business (Standard D, C, I, O; Flex J, C, D, I, O). The Economy and Premium letters are not on the pages read. On Air Europa flights Suma earns on spend, so the letter does not change the result. On another SkyTeam airline it does (see below).
  • VIP lounges: Business Standard and Flex include the VIP lounge. Economy and Premium fares do not (see Lounges).

Suma Miles on Air Europa flights

Air Europa flights earn Suma Miles on how much money you spend. Spend means the ticket amount: the published fare plus the fuel surcharge. Taxes, airport fees and other charges, such as management fees, are excluded. Air Europa states that the resulting figure is rounded up.

America flights6
If you travel in Business class+3
Suma level Level bonus Extra Miles per €1
Silver+50%2.5
Gold+75%3.75
Platinum+100%5
  • The level bonus is a percentage of the base 5 Miles per €1, not of the America or Business additions. A Gold member in Business on an America flight earns 5 + 1 + 3 + 3.75 = 12.75 Miles per €1.
  • America flights: Air Europa's table says America, and its card pages say long-haul. It does not say whether every long-haul route counts.
  • Not earning: flights paid fully in Miles earn no Miles and do not count toward a level. On Miles plus cash, Miles are earned on the cash part.
  • Miles are credited within 48 hours (72 hours for other SkyTeam airlines). A missing-Miles claim must be made within 6 months of the flight.
  • Miles expire after a period of inactivity. Air Europa's pages differ on whether that is 18 or 24 months, so check your account.

Suma levels

Level Level Miles Or flights Minimum Air Europa flights SkyTeam status
Suma
Suma Silver18,000144Elite
Suma Gold32,000264Elite Plus
Suma Platinum60,000504Elite Plus
  • Period: 12 consecutive months, not a calendar year. Whenever a transaction is registered, the calculation period is updated for a further 12 months. A level lasts 12 months from the day it is reached, and moving up does not lose the Miles or flights counted toward the level.
  • Level Miles are a separate balance from Suma Miles and are not redeemable. They come from flights on Air Europa or any SkyTeam airline (excluding airport taxes), from carbon offset credits (50 Level Miles for every €10 spent) and from other program partners. Air Europa does not publish how a flight converts to Level Miles, so the calculator does not estimate them.
  • Silver: priority boarding, free standard seat selection, one extra bag, waitlist priority and 50% more Miles. Gold adds lounge access on international flights or connections on Air Europa or any SkyTeam airline, free seat selection of all types, fast track and 75% more Miles. Platinum adds Business upgrades (two on intercontinental flights per card year, unlimited subject to space on short and medium haul), a guaranteed Economy seat and 100% more Miles.
  • Silver can also be kept with an active Air Europa Suma Visa card with the annual spend and at least 3,000 Miles, according to the Silver card page.

Suma Miles on other SkyTeam airlines

On other SkyTeam airlines, Suma Miles are earned by distance and booking class, not by spend. Air Europa's Delta page gives this table. The level bonus multiplies the Base Miles percentage (excluding any bonuses or promotions) by 50% (Silver), 75% (Gold) or 100% (Platinum).

Each SkyTeam airline has its own table on Air Europa's site, which this page does not copy. See Air Europa's partner airline list.

Lounges

  • Business class passengers can use the VIP lounges on domestic and international flights, at departure and transfer airports. Suma Gold, Suma Platinum and SkyTeam Elite Plus customers, in any booking class, can use the lounge when they travel on an international SkyTeam flight or connect with one on the same day.
  • Access is only at departure and transfer airports, and only in the lounge associated with the flight operating company. One companion on the same Air Europa flight is allowed.
  • See the lounges at Madrid (MAD) and Barcelona (BCN) in the Lounge Finder.
