Bilt Rewards just dropped a cool new feature that could save you serious time and points when booking flights! They've added an award flight search tool directly within the Bilt travel portal. Instead of hopping between airline websites to find award availability and calculate point transfers, you can now see revenue fares, Bilt points redemption costs, and partner airline award prices all in one place.

Right now, it only works for British Airways and Iberia, but let's be real, those are two solid options for transatlantic flights. The hope is they will add more partners in 2026! This is a big deal because it lets you easily compare whether it's better to book a flight directly with cash, redeem Bilt points through their portal, or transfer your points to a partner airline for an award ticket.

Why does this matter to you? Because finding the best deal on award flights can be a real pain. This new tool simplifies the process, potentially saving you a ton of time and helping you squeeze even more value out of your Bilt Rewards points. Keep an eye out for more partners being added in the future!

Why This Matters for Your Strategy

News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.

As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
