1000 instant Turkish Airlines (Miles&Smiles) points – for updating details
Turkish Airlines are currently offering 1000 free Miles&Smiles points for a simple update to your account.
To earn the points, simply do the following on your Miles&Smiles account:
- adding a Turkish ID card number (250 points)
- updating your home address (250 points)
- updating your mobile number (250 points)
- opting in to all communication preferences (250 points).
Clearly the Turkish ID card isn’t technically available to many, but see the helpful comment below for a quick workaround.
Points post instantly, so in terms of the “change” of address and telephone number: if you don’t actually need to change these, simply change them slightly, update and wait for the points to post, then change them back. Similarly, opt in to all communication preferences, then opt back out later.
Just access your account and change these details – as noted above, the points will be added to your balance instantly.
Turkish Airlines offers a regular (and often very good value) direct flight from Malta to Istanbul, so Miles&Smiles is a frequent flyer scheme worth joining.
You can use Ataturk’s number then delete it 😛

it never asked me to enter Turkish identification number, the email I got just asked to update my personal information…In which one option was if I was a Turkish Citizen
Yes – but when you update your personal information, you’ll see there is an option to put in a Turkish ID number. If you add one, you’ll get another 250 points.
