At PointsYeah, we’re always building tools to make award travel easier and more personal. Our May 2025 updates help you search smarter, plan faster, and get more from your points.
Seat Alerts Are Here
Tired of checking back to see if the seat you want is available? Now you don’t have to.
With our new Seat Alerts feature, you can set a notification on any search result. We’ll alert you when the seat opens up—whether you’re avoiding the middle seat, trying to sit together as a family, or looking for a better row. It works quietly in the background so you can set it and forget it.
This feature is currently in beta.
PointsInsider Is Now Live
We launched PointsInsider, our new content hub built for travelers who want to go deeper. It’s your go-to space for strategies, tips, and insights—whether you’re just getting started or you’re already optimizing every point.
Expect posts on how to spot hidden value, navigate tricky programs, and stay updated on award trends. We believe smart travelers are informed travelers.
Heart Your Favorite Airports
You can now heart airports to save them as favorites. When entering your departure or destination during a live search, your favorited airports will appear at the top of the dropdown. That means fewer clicks and faster decisions—especially helpful if you fly out of the same hubs regularly.
This small change can save real time, especially for frequent flyers juggling multiple searches.
flydubai Now Bookable with Emirates Skywards Miles
You can now search and book flydubai flights through the Emirates Skywards program. Emirates is the only major loyalty program that allows redemptions on flydubai—and now PointsYeah brings that access to your searches.
Why this matters:
- flydubai serves over 120 destinations, many not easily reached otherwise
- Several routes are monopoly markets, giving you unique redemption opportunities
- Coverage includes the Middle East, South Asia, Central Asia, and beyond
This adds serious value for anyone trying to reach cities that aren’t well-served by traditional carriers.
