Award Flight Search FAQs

Key details to check before you transfer points or complete an award booking.

How does Advanced Award Alert work?: Save the routes, dates, cabins, programs, points, and tax limits that matter to you. AwardTool checks for matching availability on a regular basis and notifies you when a match is found.
What does the points price mean?: The points or miles amount is the award price shown by the airline loyalty program. If you plan to use transferable bank points, confirm the transfer partner and ratio before moving points.
Are taxes and fees included?: Taxes, fees, and carrier surcharges are separate from the points price. AwardTool shows estimated cash amounts when available; confirm the final total during booking.
Where do I book an award flight?: AwardTool helps you find and compare award space. Complete the ticket through the applicable airline loyalty program or its supported booking channel.
