SkyMiles Enrollment

1. How do I enroll in SkyMiles? 
To enroll in SkyMiles, visit the SkyMiles Enrollment section on delta.com.

2. Can members of a household share the same account? 
No, each SkyMiles account must be associated with an individual traveler. Flight miles will only be awarded to the actual traveler in the SkyMiles account in his or her name.

PIN or Personal Identification Number

1. What is a Personal Identification Number, or PIN? 
Your Personal Identification Number, or PIN, is a four-digit number (0-9) selected by you. It will ensure that no one but you will have access to your account information or transactions via our web site and the SkyMiles Automated Information Line. You will need your PIN each time you wish to access your SkyMiles account information so it's a good idea to write it down. For your protection, always store your SkyMiles number separate from your PIN.

2. How do I request a PIN?  
Your PIN can be any four-digit number that is easy for you to remember, except 0000. To create your PIN, visit the PIN Assistance section on nwa.com. A PIN cannot be created by a Northwest representative. When creating a PIN, you will be required to provide your Zip/Postal code if it is on file with SkyMiles. Some areas in the Asia Pacific region either do not have postal codes or have recently changed postal codes. To see what address information is on file with SkyMiles, simply check your last mileage summary or mailing from SkyMiles or contact your local SkyMiles Service Center


3. Can I change my PIN?  
Yes, you can change your PIN as needed via the PIN Assistance section on nwa.com.

4. What if I forget my PIN?  
US or Canadian SkyMiles members can receive a PIN reminder via email instantly by visiting the PIN Assistance section on nwa.com and submitting a PIN reminder request.

5. Can I have more than one PIN?  
No, only one PIN per SkyMiles member is allowed at one time. However, you may change your PIN as needed.

6. If I save my PIN on my PC, for how long will it be saved?  
The PIN can be saved on your personal computer for one year. This means you will not be asked for your PIN on subsequent visits to nwa.com. Each time you return to nwa.com and elect to save your PIN on your PC, your one year period begins again. After one year, you will be required to re-enter your PIN. If you use a PC other than your own personal computer to access your account, we recommend you log out of SkyMiles when leaving that computer. Not logging out will enable anyone with access to that computer access to your SkyMiles information.

Click the 'Logout' link in the light blue box at the top right of this page to log out of your SkyMiles account.


7. How can another user log in if I have chosen to have my PC remember my PIN?  
To clear your PIN from your PC and allow another user to log in, you must first log out of your nwa.com SkyMiles session. Go to Account Summary and click 'Log Out.' Once you have logged out, a new user can enter their SkyMiles number and PIN to begin their own nwa.com SkyMiles session. If you are using someone else's PC, first make sure they are logged out and then enter your SkyMiles number and PIN.

8. What is the PIN attempt limit?  
For your security, we place a limit on the number of times a member may attempt to access an account with an invalid PIN. If you receive a message regarding your PIN attempt limit, you have exceeded the maximum number of attempts allowed and access to your account information through nwa.com will be temporarily suspended. For immediate assistance, you may contact the nwa.com Website Online Support at 1-800-692-6955.

1. How do I request mileage that has not been added to my account?
