[Award Alert] Fly to Curaçao From 7,500 Points

Fresh off its memorable FIFA World Cup appearance, Curaçao is having a moment.

If you’re already eyeing a winter escape for later this year or early next year, there’s plenty of award space to visit the colorful Caribbean island starting at just 7,500 Alaska Atmos Rewards points one-way.

Here’s how you can book these flights to check out Curaçao for yourself.

Award Deal — The Details

We’re seeing an impressive amount of award availability on American Airlines to Curaçao (CUR), with one-way flights starting at just 7,500 Alaska Atmos Rewards points in economy.

Better yet, travelers from around the U.S. can often connect through Miami (MIA) for the same price or only a few thousand points more when booking through Alaska Atmos Rewards, making this one of the better Caribbean award deals we’ve seen lately.

• Class: Economy and business
• Routes: Miami (MIA) to Curaçao (CUR); connect from other U.S. cities for free or a few thousand points more
• Airline: American Airlines
• Cost: From 7,500 miles and $18.10 in taxes and fees
• Dates: November 2026 through May 2027
• Seats: Up to 9 seats in economy, up to 6 seats in business class

To compare multiple dates and routes at once, you can use a tool like Seats.aero.

For example, you can book a nonstop flight from Miami to Curaçao for just 7,500 Atmos Rewards points in economy plus minimal taxes and fees. If you’re hoping for a more comfortable flight, we’ve also spotted business class awards starting at 15,000 points one-way, though availability is much more limited.

For award rates this cheap, even a separate positioning flight to Miami could still make the trip a bargain if you don’t live near South Florida.

How To Book

The best way to book this deal is by redeeming Alaska Atmos Rewards points.

While Alaska points aren’t as easy to earn as some other airline currencies, there are still several ways to build your balance. The quickest option is earning through an Alaska Airlines credit card. You can also earn points through the Atmos Rewards Shopping portal, Atmos Rewards Dining, flying Alaska Airlines or its Oneworld partners, or transferring points from Bilt Rewards or Marriott Bonvoy.

Because this award availability is wide open across several months, you’ll have plenty of flexibility to find travel dates that fit your schedule.

Final Thoughts

It’s hard to find flights to the Caribbean for cheaper than 7,500 points one-way, especially during the busy winter travel season. With colorful Willemstad, beautiful beaches, excellent snorkeling and diving, and abundant award space available, this is an easy redemption to recommend if you’re planning a warm-weather escape later this year or early next year — or if you simply got captivated by Curaçao during the World Cup and want to see it for yourself.
