Qatar Airways has modified the redemption rules for its Privilege Club loyalty program. The airline has rolled back previous restrictions that required members to have accrued Avios through flights or co-brand credit card transactions before they could add individuals to a ‘My List’ or ‘Friends & Family’ section for Avios redemption. 

Under the updated rules, the specific activity requirements have been eliminated. To add individuals to these lists, the Privilege Club account must now only have been active for at least 30 days.
