Combining miles after death
Both my husband and I have miles on Skywards. My husband passed recently and I am wondering whether it's possible to get his miles combined into my Skywards account. If possible, the best way to do this would be appreciated.

sorry for your loss, probably best not to tell them and use the miles to upgrade yourself rather than the stress of sending in wills etc

Its not really bureaucracy, its no different to any other institution that holds something of value requiring proof that any claim is genuine.
Having experienced a family passing myself recently Im sure that the OP will easily have to hand what they are asking for, as the same docs will be required by others.
