I search for award availability every day, and I have tried almost every tool on the market in my never-ending quest for the best ways to redeem my points and miles. My verdict on the handy Point.me tool was that, until recently, while the number of programs covered was impressive and there were some neat inclusions, search results were slow to load, and you could only search one route on one date at a time, which wasn't ideal.
That is no longer the case. Point.me has listened to user feedback and added a host of new benefits, improving the platform.
If you have ever stared at a six-figure credit card points and miles balance and had no idea what you could realistically redeem them for, these are updates you should know about.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
