You earn Status Miles whenever you fly with TAP and the Star Alliance network. These miles are only used to maintain or move to Victoria Gold and Victoria Silver status.

Unlike Bonus Miles, Status Miles are not added to your mileage account and therefore cannot be spent on award tickets and other services.

You will always get as many Status Miles as Bonus Miles, depending on the route and fare of your flight.

If you need more Status Miles to maintain or move to Gold or Silver status, you can always convert your Bonus Miles into Status Miles.

To obtain the miles needed to upgrade your Victoria status you can convert your Bonus Miles into Status Miles. To obtain Silver status, you can convert up to 10,000 Bonus Miles into 5,000 Status Miles. To maintain this status, you can convert up to 10,000 Bonus Miles into 5,000 Status Miles. To obtain Gold status, you can convert up to 20,000 Bonus Miles into 10,000 Status Miles. To maintain this status, you can convert up to 10,000 Bonus Miles into 5,000 Status Miles.

However, please note that only one transaction is allowed per qualifying period.
