 <li>'''Egypt Air'''. Up to 5 relatives. Unlike any other program, all miles are credited towards the primary account holder’s account and count towards elite status (only the primary account holder can have elite status and get any elite status bonuses). This makes it much easier for one person to earn Star Alliance status.  But remember, elite status only provides lounge access for a maximum of one guest, so you may need to try to earn status with more than one account in your family.

 However, while you can use your miles to redeem a ticket for your spouse and they can use their miles to redeem a ticket for you, you can't always combine points from both of your accounts to purchase a single ticket. You CAN'T just pay for part of the ticket from one account and part of the ticket from another account. The exceptions are for the programs list below.

-<li>'''Emirates'''. Emirates doesn’t allow family members to pool miles. But they do have a family bonus plan, where the primary account holder can earn 20% of the normal number of miles, when one of their family member flies. However, the family member wouldn't earn anything themselves. We don’t think it is usually worthwhile to share miles, if you are only getting 20% credit.

 <li>'''Gulf Air'''. Like Emirates, a primary account holder can receive the miles when one of their family members flies. But with Gulf Air, they receive a more reasonable 70% of the normal number of miles. Still probably not worth it—but better to get 70% of the miles and actually use them, then to get 100% of the miles and have them spread across multiple family member accounts.
