Does it make sense to buy airline frequent flyer miles or hotel points?

It depends. You need to run the numbers and see if it's worth it to buy miles/points.

Step 1. Check the cash price of the hotel/flight

Step 2. Check how many points/miles it's going to cost for the hotel/flight

Step 3. Check how much it's going to cost to purchase the points/miles needed

Compare options 1 and 3 and pick whichever one will cost less money

Tip: most miles and points purchases are processed by Points.com which will code as misc. so you won't earn airline miles or hotel points from purchasing points.

American Airlines, Avianca LifeMiles and Delta Skymiles are 3 airline points that code as travel
