Ding! Ding! We have a winner and it's both me and the point.me search tool. *Condé Nast Traveller* ## FAQs point.me is a real-time award flight search tool that discovers live award availability across 150+ airlines and programs in one click. Get fast, accurate points flight search results, along with helpful price guidance and detailed booking instructions so you can spend fewer points on the flights you want. ### How does point.me get better prices than my credit card portal? Are these special discounts? When you book award flights in your credit card’s travel portal, you get a set value for your points — usually 1 cent per point, so a $500 flight costs 50,000 points. But when you transfer your points from your credit card to an airline loyalty program, you can get exponentially more value. That same 50,000 points can cover a $3,000 flight in business class.  point.me makes it easy to get the best value for your points by showing you all your options in one place and walking you through the points transfer process step-by-step. You’ll book your award flights directly with the airline loyalty program and save 50-90% compared to booking with your credit card portal. ### What airlines can I book using point.me? point.me searches 150+ airlines and loyalty programs so you can use all the major credit card currencies (American Express Membership Rewards, Wells Fargo, Bilt, Capital One miles, Chase Ultimate Rewards, or Citi ThankYou points) and transfer them to airlines ranging from American, British Airways, and Cathay Pacific, to Virgin Atlantic, WestJet, and Xiamen Airlines (and almost everything in between). ### Why should I use point.me? Can’t I just do this myself? If you know where to look, you could search for award flights by going to dozens of different airline websites. We save you time and money by showing you flight search results from 150+ airlines and programs in one place, with one fast and easy search. Plus, you can set fare alerts to be notified when award flight prices drop, see price guidance to know if you’re getting a good deal, and read step-by-step booking instructions or get live help from an expert when you need it. ### Can I try point.me for free? Yes, there is a free version of point.me! You won’t have access to real-time search results, but you can view award flight search results from other members and see examples of where you could travel on points. Access to our comprehensive real-time award flight search starts at $10.75 per month (billed annually). ### How many points do I need for a free flight? Points fares vary widely depending on factors like when and where you’re traveling, the airline, and the class of service, but we often see domestic one-way economy flights under 7,000 points, one-way international economy flights as low as 15,000-20,000 points, and one-way business class international flights as low as 50,000-60,000 points. ### How does transferring credit card points to airlines work? Most major credit cards (Chase, Amex, Capital One, Citi) let you transfer points to airline partners at a 1:1 ratio. For example, 50,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards can become 50,000 United miles or 50,000 British Airways Avios. The key is choosing the right airline partner for your specific route — that's where point.me helps. We show you which transfers give you the best value for each flight.
