PointsYeah is an award search tool that helps points and miles fans locate flights and hotels with their earned travel rewards.

What began as a simple flight search feature has expanded to include a hotel search function, plus a slew of new features such as deal alerts, airplane seat maps, and the option to earn miles by subscribing.

Let’s have a peek at the new and improved PointsYeah.

PointsYeah Introduces Exciting New Features

Along with searching for award flights, PointsYeah added the ability to search for hotels last year. This lets users find and compare hotel stays using both points and cash from a variety of programs and booking platforms.

One appealing aspect of PointsYeah’s flight and hotel search features is that they are available to users for free, although the paid version includes enhanced search capabilities: wider date ranges, multiple airports, and more alerts.

Flight Deals

One of PointsYeah’s new features is the addition of flight deals. Through the Flight Deals interface, you can efficiently explore the site’s entire collection of flight deals over a 60-day span. You also can search specifically for “weekends only” from the U.S. to “Anywhere,” allowing for a wide-ranging search.

The results will display the flight cost in points, along with a cash component. You can filter by airline programs and bank programs and even set a maximum amount of points for your flight deal search!

You also can create an unlimited number of Deal Alerts. Setting up these alerts will not lead PointsYeah to conduct extra searches; rather, it will notify you if a search result appears (likely from users conducting live searches) that aligns with your specified criteria.

Flight Deals functionality is available to both free and premium users.

Earn Miles With PointsYeah Premium Membership

If you are a newcomer to PointsYeah, you can earn bonus miles through various airline shopping portals when you purchase an annual membership plan.

PointsYeah Premium membership plans are offered at the following prices:

Monthly subscription: $11.99
Annual plan: $99.99

When purchasing the annual plan, you have the opportunity to earn bonus airline miles, detailed as follows:

American Airlines shopping portal: 2,500 miles and loyalty points
Alaska Airlines shopping portal: 2,000 miles
Delta Air Lines shopping portal: 2,000 miles
United Airlines shopping portal: 1,500 miles

Bottom Line:

PointsYeah, a tool that searches for flight and hotel availability (with points or cash), has introduced new features, including flight deals, deal alerts, and airline seat maps.

Final Thoughts

With popular apps like Seats.aero, Point.me, MaxMyPoint, and Roame.Travel offering both free and paid options for travelers wishing to optimize their point and mile balance, the travel app market has recently become crowded — in a good way.

A powerful search engine has always been available on PointsYeah to locate desired award flights and hotel stays. With the addition of new features, PointsYeah is developing into a robust platform for travelers trying to find the best deals and comparing the prices of hotels and flights using cash or points.
