The IdeaWorksCompany Reward Seat Availability Report is based upon 600 booking and fare queries made by the IdeaWorksCompany at the websites of 6 frequent flyer programs to assess low-priced everyday reward seat availability. Lowest-price rewards are an important benefit for most members and the primary topic of this survey. The city pairs included in the survey are among each carrier’s top markets based upon passenger traffic.  The methodology used in 2019 was repeated for 2024 with departure and return dates evenly distributed during June, July, August, September, and October. The queries were conducted in early March. The lowest reward price or fare, to include basic economy fares, was tallied. The 2024 survey is limited to US domestic flights of 251-2,500 miles and economy class rewards. The survey does not evaluate close-in bookings; it is limited to vacation-style bookings months before departure. This 44-page report is not distributed to the public; it is available for sale to airlines.  Please contact jay “at” ideaworkscompany.com for details and pricing.
