I don't have any points in my account, so I can't get past the screen that shows the number of required points.
It appears not to show the cash portion of the award ticket anywhere. I imagine if I had the points I might be able to see this.
Is there any way to find this out on the website?
If its not trivial to find out, can folks post their award cash costs so we can have some datapoints? I'm keen to use my points intra-Asia but it often seems like the taxes on the award tickets are more expensive than just buying a LCC (not even considering the points)!
From a previous poster, he paid $220 BKK-SFO.
I asked Grok and it made me this table but i have no idea if its correct
