How much are points and miles worth in 2024?

Navigating the world of travel rewards can be daunting, whether you're a newbie or a seasoned traveler. With countless rewards programs offering different currencies and perks, it's hard to know how to make the most of your points and miles.

To help you make sense of it all, we’ve gathered data from over 50 popular airline, hotel, and credit card rewards programs to show you the average value of your points and miles. These valuations can give you a better idea of how far your rewards will take you and whether you're getting good value for your redemptions.

What do these valuations mean?

Airline and hotel rewards can vary widely in value, ranging from roughly 0.4 cents to 3 cents per point or mile. This makes it tricky to gauge the worth of your rewards when planning a trip. Our valuations aim to make it easier for you to decide which rewards programs to focus on and whether to redeem your points or miles for travel.

General travel credit cards offer flexibility, allowing you to redeem rewards for travel through the issuer's portal or transfer them to airline or hotel partners for potentially higher value. For example, Chase Ultimate Rewards points are worth 1.25 cents per point when redeemed through the booking portal, but transferring them to an airline or hotel partner could yield even greater value.

How to calculate rewards values

To calculate the value of your rewards on a specific booking, divide the cash cost of the booking by its cost in points or miles. If the value matches or exceeds our estimated average value, it's wise to use your rewards for travel. If not, consider paying with cash or exploring other booking options.

Remember, the value of your rewards may vary depending on factors like when and where you travel and the type of fare class or hotel tier you choose. By understanding the value of your points and miles, you can make informed decisions and maximize your travel rewards.
