In 2024, Points Path launched a Google Flights web browser extension that displays award rates alongside cash fares for flights sold by select airlines. This extension has been extremely useful, especially for travelers just getting started with points and miles.
Recently, Points Path launched two new features: one that calculates Points Boosts on the Chase Travel portal and another that compares hotel prices across multiple sites. So, let's take a closer look at the Points Path extension, including what it is, how to install it and how it can help you.
On Google Flights, the Points Path extension shows award rates alongside cash prices and indicates whether it's better to redeem rewards or book at a paid rate for each itinerary. Once you select an itinerary, you can book a paid rate as you typically would with Google Flights or redeem an award directly with the airline loyalty program.
