South African Airways Voyager

Published fixed region-based Star Alliance award chart — SAA flies no India metal, but Voyager books LH/TK/SQ/TG/Air India partner awards ex-India, and is the natural currency for Southern-Africa flying. No Indian card reaches it directly; the only way in is a hotel hop: IHG One 5:1.

Nerf risk: stable No tracker events on record for this program

Expiry: miles valid 3 years from the date earned; extendable for a fee

Floor = the worst redemption you can always fall back on; ceiling = the best sweet-spot exit. The house value is what a disciplined traveller actually clears.
