Extension summary
If you’re never sure when’s the best time to use your frequent flyer miles, this is the tool you’ve been waiting for! Points Path is the first award flight search engine that runs directly in Google Flights, and provides both the cash price and points price of every flight in a search.
Using Points Path is easy. Just install the extension and then search for your trip as you normally would with Google Flights. In addition to getting Google’s regular cash results, Points Path adds the points or miles price to each flight, and then lets you know which is the better deal for each one — cash or points.
✈️ MULTIPLE FREQUENT FLYER PROGRAMS ALL AT ONCE ✈️
When two or more frequent flyer programs have availability on the same flight, Points Path lists all of them. Just click the "i" info icon under any points price to see every award that's available for that flight. Points Path also shows you which bank credit cards can transfer to each program. And if there's a transfer bonus available, Points Path will show that too.
✈️ BOOK AWARDS DIRECTLY FROM GOOGLE FLIGHTS ✈️
Once you’re ready to book a flight, click through to the normal Google Flights booking page, where you’ll find the option to book directly with the airline using your points, right next to all the usual cash options.
✈️ GLOBAL COVERAGE AND LIVE AWARD DATA ✈️
Points Path works for both one-way and roundtrip searches, and on domestic and international flights across our covered airlines and their alliance partners. All points and miles data in Points Path is retrieved live from the airlines each time you search, so it's the most up-to-date pricing info available.
