In 2024, Points Path launched a Google Flights<\/a><\/span> web browser extension that displays award rates alongside cash fares for flights sold by select airlines. This extension has been extremely useful, especially for travelers just getting started with points and miles<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Recently, Points Path launched two new features<\/a><\/span>: one that calculates Points Boosts on the Chase Travel portal<\/a><\/span> and another that compares hotel prices across multiple sites. So, let’s take a closer look at the Points Path extension, including what it is, how to install it and how it can help you.<\/p>\n

What is Points Path?<\/h2>\n

Points Path is a web browser extension that works on Google Flights, Chase Travel, and select online travel agencies.<\/p>\n

On Google Flights, the Points Path extension shows award rates alongside cash prices and indicates whether it’s better to redeem rewards or book at a paid rate for each itinerary. Once you select an itinerary, you can book a paid rate as you typically would with Google Flights or redeem an award directly with the airline loyalty program.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, within the Chase Travel portal, the Points Path extension shows Points Boost redemption rates for flights and hotels. This is particularly important, as redemption rates through Points Boost can vary, with some offering significantly better value than others.<\/p>\n

And on select online travel agencies, such as Expedia, the Points Path extension shows when you can book a specific property at a lower rate.<\/p>\n

How to install the Points Path extension<\/h2>\n

To install the Points Path extension, you must be a Google Chrome, Apple Safari, Microsoft Edge, Brave or Opera browser user. To get started with Points Path, head to its website<\/a><\/span> and click the blue “Download the free extension” button near the top of the page.<\/p>\n

Doing so will take you to the installation page for your browser, which, for me, was the Points Path Chrome Web Store page. I clicked the “Add to Chrome” button on this page to install the Points Path Chrome extension. The installation only took a few seconds, after which I could begin using the Points Path extension.<\/p>\n

How much does Points Path cost?<\/h2>\n

Points Path offers a free standard version and several paid membership tiers. All tiers offer access to the full Chase Points Boost<\/a><\/span> and hotel comparison features; the differences lie in the Google Flights extension. However, some paid tiers also provide new members with longer free trials for Dollar Flight Club Premium+ and HotelSlash<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Specifically, standard Points Path members can see award options in the following programs:<\/p>\n
