A number of active DDFers highly recommend AwardWallet Plus.
Some say it's a "game changer." Others say it has saved them many points/miles for a measly $10/year.

UPDATE:
AwareWallet Plus price has increased (as of 02/17) for new members to $30 a year. Grandfathered accounts remain at $10 a year.

Now, after DL, AA, UA is there still any value to AW?

Are they as good as AW before they started losing all the airlines?

As predicted. Oh well.

Ugh.  Just starting using this right now.  And now that the airlines aren't working anymore - I'm not really sure what to switch to.  Any ideas?  What is everyone else using to track airline miles?  I was thinking of making my own excel sheet, but that's a lot of work.

I'm also having an issue with the site showing me expiration date on my miles.  I added my Chase rewards and instead of automatically showing me an expiration date, it shows: "Optionally you can specify when these points are going to expire. AwardWallet will not retrieve and update this information for you automatically."

Keeping track of airlines miles
« Reply #267 on: December 25, 2012, 12:07:08 AM »
I just recently signed up for AwardWallet.com which is amazing in keeping track of all credit card points and expiration date.  However, now that they stopped keeping track of airline miles, what is the next best website to use?  I'm looking for something that will automatically update the points AND the expiration date of the points.  I tried usingmiles.com, but that is prompting me to manually add in the expiration date information.  Any ideas?

I was going to tell you to check out this thread but I see you already posted the same question there.

Nobody answered there.  I figured the thread had died, so I restarted a new one.

Anybody has an answer?

Just a thought...threads never die. If no one answered there you bump it. There's no logical reason why they would answer a new thread over responding to a question in an existing thread. If anything people will be happier with you for not starting a new thread and just bumping your question in the other thread.

So, does this mean that no one has an answer to the question since we're all just talking about the fact that I started a new thread?  I'm sure that someone here has airlines miles that s/he's tracking.  I would really appreciate it if someone can make a suggestion of a program that tracks airline miles and expiration dates.

Thanks.

Sorry for the trouble of starting a new thread, but I'd really appreciate an answer.

Again - does that mean that you don't have an answer or don't use a program to track your airlines miles?  Or anyone else?  Because if you did have an answer, it would seem a little silly to continue this back and forth after I've apologized for "violating" rules and was asking a question for help.
