Why do I see the retail prices on flights?

Great question! At point.me, we believe in transparency, so we show the retail prices alongside your points options for two key reasons:

  1. Show the Value of Your Points: There’s nothing better than using points to book a flight that could cost thousands in cash. Seeing the retail price highlights the value you’re unlocking.

  2. Provide More Options: Sometimes, booking with cash is a good choice—like when traveling with a group and you need to book extra seats. Having the retail price visible gives you flexibility to choose what works best.
