Xandr Miles Drive

Welcome to the Xandr Miles Drive donation page. The Xandr Miles Drive is an initiative of the Xandr Women’s Network Intersectionality & Advocacy Committee.

Xandr has partnered with Miles4Migrants, a nonprofit organization doing incredible work in the area of helping to reunite and relocate families.

The campaign runs from October 14 to January 31, 2020 and has a goal of 2 million miles. Your airline mile pledges and donations will go towards booking flights to help reunite families.

Thanks for your support!

How Does it Work?

When you donate miles, you’re pledging to fulfill a future case from one of our partner organizations. Our flight booking team will find the most efficient use of miles for each received case. Once we have a case that matches your specific pledge, we’ll work with you to book the flights.

What miles are most useful?

We accept miles from many airline loyalty programs; however, based on the most frequent requests for departure/arrival locations, certain programs are used more frequently than others.

The most needed miles and points donations are:

  • United Airlines
  • American Airlines
  • Alaska Airlines
  • Southwest Airlines
  • Flying Blue (Air France, KLM, Garuda, et al.)
  • American Express Membership Rewards
  • Chase Ultimate Rewards
  • Capital One Rewards
  • Air Canada/Aeroplan

Why do you have minimum donation amounts?

The minimum donation amounts reflect airline programs' lowest single passenger award fare that Miles4Migrants can book for a refugee, asylum seeker, or asylee. 

What about cash donations?

While our primary purpose is to use airline miles to book flights, these award flights often incur additional taxes/fees. Cash donations help us to cover those extra costs!
