Qatar Airways Reverses Restriction—You Can Again Use Credit Card Points To Book Flights For Friends & Family

Pointify is tracking this program change for the points-and-miles community.

Qatar Airways will again let you transfer credit card points into its loyalty program and book a flight for your spouse or another family member without first crediting a flight to your account. The airline reversed that restriction September 14, about three months after imposing it—though limits on who you can book for remain.
