PointsYeah lets you customize your search experience so the results better match the way you travel.
By setting your preferred airports, loyalty programs, airlines, and other preferences, you can spend less time filtering results and more time finding award flights and hotels you’d actually book.
Most preferences only need to be configured once, and they’ll automatically apply to future searches.
Set Your Home Airports
If you usually depart from the same airport or a handful of nearby airports, adding them to your preferences can make searching faster.
Your home airports become the default starting point for many searches, helping you avoid repeatedly entering the same departure cities.
Whether you fly from a major hub or a regional airport, setting your preferred origins helps tailor PointsYeah to your travel habits.
Choose Your Preferred Rewards Programs
PointsYeah supports a wide range of transferable bank rewards and airline and hotel loyalty programs.
If you primarily earn rewards with programs like Chase Ultimate Rewards, American Express Membership Rewards, Capital One Miles, or Citi ThankYou Rewards, you can prioritize those programs in your search preferences.
Doing so helps surface redemption options that are most relevant to the points you already have.
Exclude Airlines You Don’t Want to Fly
Everyone travels differently.
If there are airlines you prefer not to fly, you can exclude them from your search results.
Whether you’re avoiding high carrier surcharges, sticking with a particular alliance, or simply have personal preferences, excluding airlines helps reduce clutter and keeps your results focused.
Assign Your Own Point Values (Premium)
PointsYeah Premium members can assign custom values to their rewards programs.
Rather than relying on a single valuation, you decide what each type of point or mile is worth to you. PointsYeah then uses those values when evaluating search results, making it easier to compare redemption options across different loyalty programs.
This feature is especially useful if you consistently value certain rewards programs more highly than others.
Customize Additional Search Preferences
You’ll also find additional options that help tailor your searches, including:
- Preferred cabin classes
- Maximum taxes and fees
- Airline and hotel loyalty programs
- Hotel corporate codes
- Default sorting preferences
These settings help ensure your search results reflect how you actually travel.
Why Personalization Matters
The more PointsYeah understands your travel preferences, the more relevant your search results become.
Instead of repeatedly adjusting filters or scrolling through options you’d never book, you can focus on comparing trips that match your goals from the start.
Most settings only need to be configured once, and you can update them at any time.
