What AwardTool is

AwardTool is an award travel search engine. It finds flights and hotel stays that can be booked with points and miles, and shows each award's points price next to its taxes and fees. Travelers book with the airline or hotel program; AwardTool does not sell tickets.

It has two kinds of search. Real-Time Search and Mega Search query the loyalty programs live for the routes and dates you enter. Panorama, Explore and route calendars read stored results from earlier searches and show when each was last seen.

Prices are for subscriptions bought on awardtool.com, in US dollars, checked November 12, 2026. Subscriptions bought inside the iPhone or Android app are billed by the app store and can be priced differently.

One entry in a live search is one origin, one destination, one direction and one date.

Older reviews quote earlier figures, such as 32-entry searches, 25 or 70 alerts and lower prices. Those figures are out of date. Please use this table.

Platforms and languages

AwardTool is a website, an iPhone app and an Android app. One account works on all three. The website is available in 22 languages.

Where the data comes from

Most of AwardTool's award availability comes from established travel data providers, and some airlines share their availability with us through APIs. We do not run web crawlers to collect data from airline websites.

Live searches return what the programs show at that moment. Stored results are kept from earlier searches and carry a last-seen time. The public award pages are built from a snapshot of the stored data, count only values seen in the previous 30 days, and scan departures up to 365 days ahead.

A stored price is a record of what AwardTool saw, not a quote. The loyalty program sets the final price and seats.
