Why Can’t I Sometimes Find the Availability FCF Found in Sweet Redeem Alerts?

Our Sweet Redeem alerts (for exceptional low-cost award space availability) are different from our flash fare alerts. With flash fares, our team constantly checks for price fluctuations and updates our alerts accordingly. For example, a fare might increase from $1,500 to $1,900, and we’ll reflect that in the alert until it expires or is no longer of FCF-worthy value. Fares are also instantly actionable. We give you a link, so you can book it instantly. While the fare data is obviously NOT ‘real time,’ it’s checked and refreshed often.

In contrast, our Sweet Redeem finds are not updated after time of publishing as they are extremely labor intensive to produce. Given award availability changes often, as people book up the space, and airlines change their mind, both types of FCF alerts are very similar and different at the same time.
