Overview
- Turkish published new partner domestic award charts on Dec. 3 without advance notice, as first flagged by LoyaltyLobby.
- Standard one-way domestic pricing rose to 15,000 miles in economy, 22,500 in business, and 30,000 in first, up 50% across the board.
- Mainland U.S.–Hawaii awards now price separately at 25,000 miles in economy, 40,000 in business, and 50,000 in first each way, a 150–167% increase.
- Reporters testing the changes have found little or no bookable partner award space to Hawaii through Miles&Smiles.
- The update undercuts a popular United sweet spot funded by transferable points, while region-to-region partner charts and Turkish-operated pricing largely remain in place.
