and now to the hotel points and frequent-flyer miles!!!
for more information, consult the jumeirahinternational.com website. when checking in, i saw a plate at the reception desk offering different frequent flyer miles. i remember they did not offer LH or KL miles, but they offered Delta, Emirates and something else.
i choose to join the jumeirah groupīs own point scheme. i think you receive 1 point for 3 USD spent. for our stay, we received about 2 free burj nights in return, because our F&B bills were large and higher than the room charges

(dont ask me how this could happen

)
the jumeirah program also allows you to buy upgrades, spa treatments etc with your points.
besides, for such a bill, you need to carefully choose which credit card you are using for the payment to get the most points. but who am i telling this
