How do I reach tier status with One Key?
It’s fast and easy to move up One Key tiers. The more trip elements you book, the more status you earn.
What’s a trip element? They’re the different parts of a trip—One Key takes every trip element into account and rewards you for it.
Trip elements include:
-
1 air ticket (one way or roundtrip)
-
1 hotel room night (each night counts as a trip element)
-
1 night in a vacation rental
Trip elements must be worth AED 90 or more (excluding taxes and fees) to qualify.
Your tier status
Here's what you need to book to qualify for each tier:
-
Blue - sign up, it’s free!
-
Silver - 5 trip elements within a year
-
Gold ‐ 15 trip elements within a year
-
Platinum ‐ 30 trip elements within a year
-
So, for example, if you booked a flight and 4 nights in a hotel, you’d collect 5 trip elements, enough to reach Silver tier status in one trip.

-
Will I earn rewards on bookings made prior to becoming a One Key member?
-
You will not earn rewards on bookings made before you became a One Key member. This includes any upcoming travel that was booked prior to the date you joined One Key.
Will my Expedia rewards transfer over from other regions?
-
If you have Expedia Rewards accounts in different regions, your rewards and trip elements will transfer to One Key when One Key launches in that region, and you become a One Key member in that region. Until then, you will have separate active Expedia Rewards accounts with Expedia Rewards points to use in each region where you have an account.
-
For example: If you have United Arab Emirates and Sweden Expedia accounts, you will have separate OneKeyCash you can use in the United Arab Emirates One Key Program, and Expedia Rewards points you can use in the Sweden Expedia Rewards program until One Key launches in Sweden. When One Key launches in Sweden and you become a One Key member, those Expedia Rewards points will convert to OneKeyCash and combine with your United Arab Emirates balance. Any trip elements will also be carried over as well, getting you closer to the next tier status.
-
One Key may launch in several regions at a similar time. If you're notified that your accounts across different regions are transitioning, you may not be able to see your rewards in your One Key account until the transition is complete in all regions.
