Correct. Chase and Amex use the prices from the airline. They aren't as good as the scammy aggregators, which try to upsell you further in the purchase process

- TedDoesntTalk 4y agoDon’t they have more blackout dates than the airlines?
- atdrummond 4y agoFor fare sales or awards? If anything, I find it is the opposite. The US Big 3 have very little inventory open - and what is open is super expensive. (Let’s say $10k worth of airline miles for sake of argument.) You’re better off using CC points for tickets through the card’s OTA where you can get the above $10k itinerary for $2k worth of points - and since the value per point is known and fixed, this price is never a surprise.
