When's the last time you tried to use your frequent-flier miles to book a flight? Unless you were reserving more than six months ahead, you probably struggled to come up with a seat. But the frequent-flier seats are out there and a new service offered by Yapta.com will alert you when they become available. Ever since launching in 2006, Yapta has notified travelers when airfares drop and now the site will send out an email when frequent flier miles can be used to book a flight.
"One of the biggest frustrations for frequent travelers is not knowing when they can actually redeem their miles to book an award seat," says Tom Romary, president & CEO of Yapta. "Yapta now alerts travelers via email when an award seat is available, so they don't miss out on an opportunity to use their hard-earned miles. As a personal travel assistant, Yapta enables travelers to choose the exact flights they want to take and - in addition to checking prices - tracks daily the availability of award seat inventory for them."
Here's how it works: You use Yapta to plan a trip and find the flights that you're interested in taking. From the search results you can choose to track award tickets and then Yapta will send you an email when an award seat becomes available.
