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.

The website is available in 22 languages. [AwardTool on the App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/awardtool/id6754333812) [AwardTool on Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.awardtool.flight.app) ## Where the data comes from Section URL: https://www.awardtool.com/learn/awardtool-facts#data-sources 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.
