1. What is “Miles Flight Search”?

Miles Flight Search lets you search for flights you can book using miles across 16+ frequent flyer programs — all in one place.

Instead of checking each airline separately, just do a single search and we’ll help you compare options and find the best way to redeem your miles for flights.


2. What does it mean to book a flight with miles?

Booking a flight with miles means using miles or points from a frequent flyer program to redeem instead of paying cash for the ticket.

Different programs often charge different amounts of miles for the same flight — which is why comparing matters.


3. Which airlines and programs are supported?

At launch, we support 16+ different programs which allow you to book flights from 70+ different airlines. We support a growing list of frequent flyer programs, including many that you can transfer Max Miles to.

We’re continuously expanding coverage to include more airlines and partners.


4. How do you determine the “best” option?

We compare:

  • Miles required

  • Taxes and fees

  • Duration of the journey

Results are ranked to help you quickly see which option gives you the most value for your miles.


5. Why can I only search one date at a time?

Currently, searches are performed for specific travel dates.

We’re working on adding flexible date range search to make planning easier.


6. Why does the search take some time?

We check real flight availability across multiple frequent flyer programs.

This takes longer than searching a single airline website — but ensures you get comprehensive results.


7. Are the results from HeyMax 100% accurate?

We aim to show real-time flight availability based on data from the respective frequent flyer programs.

However, flight availability and mileage pricing are controlled by airlines and can change quickly at any time. Seats may be taken by other users or availability may differ by the time you proceed to book.

While we strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information, HeyMax does not guarantee availability or pricing and is not liable for changes, discrepancies, or booking outcomes on airline or loyalty program websites.

We recommend verifying availability directly with the airline before transferring miles or completing your booking.


8. Can I book directly through HeyMax?

Currently, Miles Flight Search helps you discover the best way to redeem your miles and lets you know how you can transfer miles into the desired program.

You’ll then complete the booking directly with the airline or loyalty program after transferring your miles (if needed).


9. Can I use Max Miles for these flights?

Yes — if the frequent flyer program supports transfers from Max Miles.

We’ll show you which program to use and guide you through the transfer process


10. I usually just check one airline. Why should I use this?

The same flight can cost different amounts of miles depending on the program you use.

By comparing across programs, you may find:

  • Lower mileage prices

  • Better cabin options

  • More availability

It’s a quick way to make sure you’re not overpaying in miles.


11. Why don’t I see flights available for my date?

Flights available for miles are controlled by airlines and may not yet be released — especially far in advance.

If you don’t see results, try:

  • Alternative dates

  • Nearby airports

  • Checking again later

Availability changes frequently.


12. What’s coming next?

We’re continuously improving Miles Flight Search, including:

  • Flexible date search

  • Expanded program coverage

  • Smarter personalisation based on your miles balance
