The Best and Worst Airlines and Travel Times for Redeeming Miles

The Best and Worst Airlines and Travel Times for Redeeming Miles


Airline
rewards programs aren't all equally, well, rewarding. If you're
thinking about using your miles to travel, this analysis from MileCard
will help you maximize them.P

MileCard analyzed rewards availability for American, Delta, Southwest, JetBlue, and United to see what they really charge. Perhaps unsurprisingly,
Southwest required the fewest number of miles (20,969) for an economy
roundtrip ticket within the US, while American's average reward price is
the highest (37,696). There's lots more data in the report, however,
including the best airlines for reward flights to Hawaii, Europe, Asia,
and other areas.P

As with paying cash for flights, the cheapest
day to fly by redeeming miles is on Tuesday. Flying on Sunday will cost
you more miles.P

Check out the full report for more details and tips.P
