[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, the points/miles travel hacking stopped being worthwhile a decade ago once most airlines and hotel chains largely moved from award charts to dynamic pricing. It's still possible to accumulate lots of points and miles but redeeming them efficiently is way harder now. Better to get cash back and pay for the seats/upgrades that you want.[/quote] It is demonstrably better to pay for seats with points than with cashback.[/quote] Not apples to apples because the inventory of saver award seats is way smaller than revenue tickets. Also, if you have status, there usually the opportunity cost of the qualifying point you would’ve gained from booking with cash or credit card points cashback.[/quote] Points do not limit you to one airline where you have status. No one airline serves all destinations equally well. [/quote]
