Can airmiles be used to lower the price of your ticket?

Question

I have half the amount needed for free fllight--and just want to lower the price of my ticket. Is this possible?

Answer 1

No. You need all the miles to get a free ticket. I think you can only use your miles if you buy the ticket and use them for an upgrade to business or first class.

However, sometimes you can split the miles up - like use fewer miles for one leg (like the super saver miles) and then use more miles (like Flex-Miles) for the return leg if there are not flights that day with Super saver miles. - Or use fewer miles for one way in economy and more miles for return in business class. I never tried - but you can at least call and ask if you can use miles for a one-way ticket for 1/2 the miles - then pay for the return portion.

Answer 2

You can't trade the miles for a discounted rate but some airlines will let you cash in the miles on a voucher, for example a $50 award you can apply to the fare. It's rarely worth it, though; the amount you need for $50 is pretty close to the amount you need for a free ticket.

Answer 3

super band...yet screw that. Maiden is probable on their final excursion...tickets are 20 greenbacks...and that they'd call for way extra effective than on the Gates, only cuz they're far extra useful accepted (like the Police or Stones did) Hell...Bol thrower in no way shall we their tickets get high priced. in my opinion ... no count how stable they're...value like that at anythhing in need of a Charity fundraiser tutor are an insult to the followers that supported them I only lost a super style of appreciate for them.
