Capital One miles needed is the award price converted at the listed ratio and rounded up, before any transfer bonus. Banks may transfer only in fixed increments. Taxes and fees are paid in cash. Each price is one way, per passenger: the lowest award the program showed on at least two departure dates, with the taxes and fees of that award. Mixed-cabin itineraries and unusually low or high outliers are left out, and flights within one country are not counted. Only routes between regions are listed; North America, Central America and the Caribbean count as one region.
Prices are one-way per traveler: the program's points or miles plus taxes and carrier fees in USD, as AwardTool observed them in the observation window. Award space changes constantly. A seat we saw may be gone, and space we haven't seen may exist. Always confirm with a live search before transferring points; most transfers can't be reversed.
