AwardWise finds award seats and cash fares in one search, prices the miles at your own valuation, and shows the real dollar cost of each, so the cheaper choice is obvious. Then it hands you the booking link.
| Option | Miles / Cash | Effective cost |
|---|---|---|
| ANA via Aeroplan Best deal | 75k + $88 | $1,138 |
| United (award) | 88k + $5.60 | $1,238 |
| Cash fare | $1,940 | $1,940 |
A "75,000 miles" price tag tells you nothing until you know what your miles are worth to you. AwardWise converts every award into real dollars (taxes plus your points at your own valuation, using a sensible default until you set your own), so award and cash finally sit on the same scale.
What you'd pay outright. Easy to compare, but the most expensive option here.
What every other award tool shows. Is that good? You genuinely can't tell from this alone.
Taxes + your 75k miles valued at your own 1.4¢. Now the winner is obvious.
Describe the trip in plain language. Refine by just replying: no re-running searches, no forms. It remembers the context and reasons about the trade-offs.
Miles, cash, and cents-per-point on the very same flight: matched pairs only, no apples-to-oranges.
Your true dollar cost: taxes plus points valued at your numbers, on every option.
Conversational follow-ups filter and re-rank without re-searching, and it explains why a deal ranks where it does.
Short on points? Get a step-by-step plan: cheapest transfers first, then buy only the real remainder.
