I love this tool since I have lots of credit card points and mileage from various places but have never really learned how to make the most of them. AwardHunt makes it easy for me to quickly see how to optimize my points usage at-a-glance! Hope they continue to work and improve it so that you can learn how to go through all the steps to turn your points into airline tickets!

Pros:

Amazing tool to figure out how to maximize your points with a very clean and easy to understand interface

Cons:

Could provide a little more detail regarding how to redeem the points

Thank you Kevin! Yes, I think it's a great idea to include some illustrated instruction on points redemption. Currently we don't have a dedicated page for tutorials. In the mean time, I recommend searching on blogs like thepointsguy and doctorofcredit for related information. I find both of them very useful!

Cool thing is, I am a member of SPG, Ultimate Rewards, and Also Thank You by Citi. So this is a nice little site to refer too, when I wanna make travel plans. Seems like a good product, but needs work on the UI. I wish there were more seating class options. maybe economy Plus. But overall a good tool

@bklynexplorr Thanks for the comment. Yes, we're still working on refining the UI. It will keep getting better for sure. Economy Plus is a good idea, thank you. One thing we'll have to sort out is that many airlines's award chart doesn't have such a fare class, so we'll work on figuring out a way to displaying the class options elegantly.

This could be especially helpful to decide where to spend a holiday.

Also, it's a web-based service that you don't need to download/ install an app - perfect

Pros:

This is really an actually helpful website to get inspiration for travel destination. Summer is coming - great timing to use this product!

Cons:

Doesn't yet have a map view option

@dillon_carter Haha I get it, I myself have tons of cards. We started from the big four because of their popularity. Will definitely add more airlines down the road. I personally like AA for when traveling between US and Asia. They have such a good partner award chart. My favorite is Alaska, versatile and cost efficient, only downside is there isn't too much way to earn AS miles. Thanks for the comment, Dillon.

@vicjang Totally makes sense to focus on the big four. I have 135K AA points I need to spend and have no idea where I'd like to go or where the best redemption would be right now. So much leg work lol.

One of the most convenient tool to sort out my points and get benefits from. The best part is, you have no idea the credits can do a lot for you. People should have known this earlier and let the traveling world goes into a better place :P

@ivywang Yes totally. A lot of people got these cards but had no idea where the points can be used, and ended up redeeming for cash back, the worst thing an award traveler could do :( During August 2016, many many people who didn't even care for credit cards joined the world when the Chase Sapphire Reserve card launched. Now there are so many people who have tons of Ultimate Rewards points without much knowledge in redemption. I hope they can all see our website and benefit from it!

Good product, useful and easy to use. Great to have it expanded to cover more credit cards and frequent flyer points so can be used globally. Great also to have a tool to book that flight using points, or be taken to a website where I can do that. Great job!

Pros:

Easy to use

Solves the points issue

Cons:

Would be good to have a tool to actually book the flights on points

International coverage - I am Australian and we have Qantas FF
