🤔 Should you always use points for flights?  ⁠

Here’s what you need to know:  ⁠
✈️ Hawaiian Airlines wanted 80,000 points (worth ~$800)  ⁠
💵 Cash price was only $583  ⁠
➡️ Using points here would’ve been like throwing away $217  ⁠
⁠
So I paid cash and saved my points for a better redemption.  ⁠
The rule: Always compare the cash cost vs. the point value. If cash is cheaper, book with cash.  ⁠
