Our Verdict

Delta’s new favorite game is called having award sales but not publishing an award chart, making it impossible to price comparison. When I use the Travel is Free calculator, I don’t actually see much/if any of a discount to standard pricing. Share anything you book in the comments.

Every trip i have looked at seems to be more expensive than what travelisfree calculator says. I agree that isn’t much of a sale. Anyone found anything good?

Everything I’ve looked at departing Denver is accurate, cheap as hell, and lots of availability. But the destinations tend to have nothing but expensive points hotels.

Might be able to squeeze in a few 4 day weekends with short trips around the country if I can find hotels for good point deals.

Confusion & disorientation is Delta’s MO with Skypesos.
