Redeemable points for unlimited flight passes?
Apologies for the newbie question but an exhaustive search yielded no answer. For unlimited flight passes, does one get any redeemable points and if so how many? It is clear that one gets a fixed set of SQMs/SQSs/SQDs per month, but I have seen no mention whatsoever of redeemable points.

In general the Unlimited Flight Passes will give you a flat number of points each month you hold the pass. It varies depending on the fare type generally. You earn both redeemable "points" and the SQM equivalent for those points. You also will get SQD each month as well equivalent to what you paid for the pass that month.

Certainly a corner case... I'd have to go digging to check; however, as other poster said doesn't appear so. You could always dig into the T+C to see if there is an argument to be made but given you aren't actually "Flying" to get the miles I can see how AC may exclude that.
