July 2026 ยท Hotel Points ยท 6 min read
Marriott Bonvoy is one of the world's largest hotel loyalty programs, with over 30 hotel brands and 9,000+ properties. But with so many redemption options, it can be hard to know when your points are actually worth redeeming โ and when you'd be better off paying cash.
Average value: Marriott Bonvoy points are worth approximately 0.7โ0.9 cents per point. That means 50,000 points โ $350โ$450.
The best value redemptions are at lower-category properties. Category 1 hotels start at just 7,500 points per night โ in expensive cities this can mean outstanding value over 0.8ยข/pt.
Book 5 consecutive nights on points and Marriott gives you the 5th night free โ an effective 20% discount on longer stays.
Example: 5 nights ร 30,000 pts = 150,000 pts normally. With 5th night free: 120,000 pts. You save 30,000 points (~$210โ$270 in value).
Always search off-peak dates when redeeming โ you save 10โ20% vs standard pricing. Avoid peak dates which cost 15โ20% more points.
Transfer at 3:1 ratio (3 Bonvoy = 1 airline mile). Every 60,000 pts transferred earns a 5,000-mile bonus. Only worthwhile if topping off a specific account.
| Redemption Type | Value/Point | Verdict |
|---|---|---|
| Hotel free nights (Cat 1โ4) | 0.8โ1.2ยข | โ Best value |
| Hotel free nights (Cat 5โ8) | 0.7โ0.9ยข | โ Good |
| Airline transfer (with bonus) | 0.6โ0.8ยข | โ ๏ธ When needed |
| Amazon/gift cards | 0.2โ0.4ยข | โ Avoid |

July 2026 ยท Credit Card Points ยท 7 min read
Chase Ultimate Rewards and American Express Membership Rewards are the two most popular transferable credit card currencies in the US. Both let you transfer to airlines and hotels โ but which one is actually worth more?
Quick answer: Chase points are worth ~1.5โ2.0ยข through Chase Travel. Amex points are worth ~1.0โ2.0ยข. Chase wins for casual redeemers; Amex wins for luxury travelers.
Chase Ultimate Rewards
Amex Membership Rewards
| Redemption | Chase | Amex |
|---|---|---|
| Travel portal value | 1.5ยข (Reserve) | 1.0ยข |
| Best transfer partner | Hyatt 1.5โ2.5ยข | ANA 2.0โ3.0ยข |
| Hyatt access | โ Yes | โ No |
| Delta access | โ No | โ Yes |
| Emirates access | โ No | โ Yes |
| Number of partners | 14 | 20+ |

Choose Amex if you want maximum luxury flight value via Emirates, ANA, or Delta miles.
๐ก Pro tip: Many experienced travelers hold both to cover all partners.

July 2026 ยท Points Strategy ยท 5 min read
You've been collecting miles and points for months โ maybe years. But how do you know if a redemption is actually a good deal? The answer comes down to one simple calculation: cents per point (CPP).
Find the cash price of the flight or hotel you want
Find the points price for the same booking
Divide cash price by points, multiply by 100 โ your CPP
Compare to the benchmark โ if above, redeem. If below, hold.
โ Good redemption
Delta flight: $350 cash or 25,000 miles โ CPP = 1.4ยข (above 1.2ยข benchmark) โ Redeem
โ Poor redemption
Marriott hotel: $120 cash or 30,000 pts โ CPP = 0.4ยข (below 0.6ยข benchmark) โ Pay cash
โญ Excellent redemption
Hyatt Tokyo: $500 cash or 25,000 pts โ CPP = 2.0ยข (above 1.7ยข benchmark) โ Definitely redeem
| Program | Min CPP | Good CPP |
|---|---|---|
| Chase Ultimate Rewards | 1.0ยข | 1.5ยข+ |
| Amex Membership Rewards | 1.0ยข | 1.5ยข+ |
| World of Hyatt | 1.2ยข | 1.7ยข+ |
| Marriott Bonvoy | 0.6ยข | 0.8ยข+ |
| Hilton Honors | 0.3ยข | 0.5ยข+ |
