Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book award flights to popular Caribbean destinations like Fort Lauderdale to Nassau between mid-January and early February, when availability is typically higher and demand is lower due to the post-holiday travel lull.

Sweet Spot

You can fly round-trip from Los Angeles to Costa Rica for just 60,000 miles with Spirit Airlines, which typically costs around $600 in cash.

Routing Trick

You can book a round-trip from Los Angeles (LAX) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL) via Cancun (CUN) for about 12,000 miles instead of the usual 20,000 miles for a direct LAX to FLL flight, saving you 8,000 miles.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid Spirit Airlines for routes to Las Vegas, as they often charge up to $99 for carry-on bags and $50 for seat selection, significantly increasing your total travel cost.
