In the fine print it does say 3 years. Thats at least how I interpreted it. But yeah, OP should carefully double check.

  • Skywards Miles bought/ gifted/ transferred/ multiplied are valid for a minimum of 3 years from the date of the purchase transaction and will expire at the end of the receiving member’s month of birth on the third year. Skywards Miles extended are valid for 12 months from the original expiry date and will expire at the end of such period. Skywards Miles reinstated are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase and will expire at the end of such period.
