Milez.biz - A handy frequent flyer tool

Last week, I came across a thread from milepoint user Phlee about a new frequent flyer tool he and his colleagues had introduced. It is a web site called Milez.biz and it's a very simple concept. You use it to find out how many miles an award will be between 2 cities. Now, I know many of us have different airlines' award charts etched in our brain, but for those of you that don't, this is a handy tool.

1. Enter your origin and destination airports.

2. Click GET MY MILEZ and wait for the site to gather the information.

3. Check out your results!

It's as simple as that. They even have links to the log into each frequent flyer program, apply (if you are not a member), and a link to the official award chart from each airline. Again, the pros may not see too much value here, but I certainly do. I have frequent flyer miles spread out over a few programs and when I choose my next destination, I like to know which FF program may be the least amount of miles for my particular cabin. One suggestion might be to have a choice of what FF programs you want displayed as I don't care to see the results of airlines I'll never have any business with.

In this example alone, we're going to Bali (DPS). I have miles AA, AC (Aeroplan), and UA. From this quick search, you can see that my best bet for First Class is AA at 135k miles. UA a close second at 140k, and Aeroplan a disappointing third at 180k miles. "The key to budget travel is to approach ahead. When it happens to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved trips and/or going to see new locations we have never been before, the reality of cost and budgeting is often in the back of our mind. Organizing and consuming our travel budget carefully is a main concern for most families. Lowering expending and charges, while still delighting your vacation to its fullest, is the key to assured achievements and fiscal liability. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thinking behind protecting money while journeying is simple: Even if your personal funds is incredibly small, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also remembering that while traveling, regardless of whether on a budget or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel charge!..". So if you're planning a trip or would just like to brush up on your mileage redemption rates, check out Milez.biz!
