Do any Oneworld loyalty programs allow retrospective miles/points claims for a non-member at time of travel?












2














I had some flights on Cathay Pacific recently that I would like to claim miles/points for retrospectively. As Marco Polo Club of Cathay charges a 100 USD membership fee, I will not use that program.



While I had planned to register and collect e.g. with BA Executive Club, I realise now that they require me to have been a member already at the time of travel, which I was not. Similar applies to Finnair Plus.



So are there any other Oneworld loyalty programs that would allow me to register and claim miles for a CX flight before my membership?

          Depends how far back, but members of Australian Frequent Flyer group claim that Qantas, a member of OneWorld, allow you to claim for flights up to 30 days before joining.
