Points + Miles
Most points content hides the only number that matters. Ours prints it: what each point is worth on a real fare, and when a transfer bonus changes the answer.
The points math
A fare like this one at $2,100 or 37,000 points + $36 taxes values each point at 5.58¢ — well above the 1¢ floor most portals give you.
Transferring during a 30% bonus turns 37,000 points into 48,100 — the same seat for a quarter fewer points out of your account.
Sample transferable points — worked example on sample program data. The award engine makes this live at P3; never transfer until award space is confirmed.
Destinations
Spain first, in depth — the catalogue grows guide by guide, never by bulk.
The capital that rewards a second look
Start here — Spain's rail hub and its best first chapter.
