Citi Strata Premier℠ Card and Citi Prestige Card members will be able to transfer points directly to Emirates Skywards at a 1:1 ratio. This means every 1,000 points you convert will give you 1,000 Emirates miles.

All other Citi Rewards credit cards will not have the ability to convert points directly to Emirates Skywards miles, but you can transfer points to an eligible Citi credit card first.
