Thanks again

Korean airline tried to reduce the expiration time 5-6 years ago to match Delta or Northwest. Korean government was against it and gave 3 year (i believe) grace period. Then KE changed the rule. still 5 years is a lot compared to US carriers. I think KE will try to match the rule eventually.

KE and OZ have very unique rules on their program. Family member can share miles and can not issue tickets for non-family members. For example, father has 20,000mile, mother has 20,000miles and son has 20,000miles.
They can issue a ticket for daughter with 60,000miles.
