Using Volaris v.pass points on an award is a good deal when it saves you 0.72¢ or more in cash for each one: 20% above the 0.6¢ Points Frog values them at. Under 0.54¢ each it is a poor deal, and paying cash keeps the points for a better award. An award that saves $500 is a great deal at up to 69,444 points, breaks even at 83,333 and is poor above 92,592.

How many points should an award cost?
Find the cash the award saves (its cash price less taxes and fees), then read across. Fewer points than the first figure is a great deal; more than the last, a poor one.
| Cash saved | Great deal up to | Breaks even at | Poor deal above |
|---|---|---|---|
| $100 | 13,888 | 16,666 | 18,518 |
| $250 | 34,722 | 41,666 | 46,296 |
| $500 | 69,444 | 83,333 | 92,592 |
| $1,000 | 138,888 | 166,666 | 185,185 |
| $2,500 | 347,222 | 416,666 | 462,962 |
How to work it out yourself
Find the cash price. Look up what the same flight, room or purchase costs in cash, on the same dates and in the same cabin or room type.
Take away what you still pay. Subtract the taxes, fees and any cash part of the award. What is left is the cash the award saves you.
Divide by the points. Divide the cash saved by the points the award costs, then multiply by 100 for cents per point.
Compare with the program's value. Set the result against 0.6¢: 0.72¢ or more is a great deal, 0.54¢ to 0.72¢ a fair one, and under 0.54¢ a poor one.
The 0.6¢ is Points Frog's estimate of what a Volaris v.pass points point usually returns, an average across typical awards; any one award can be worth much more or less. Prices in other currencies are converted with ECB reference rates of 2026-10-16. An educational estimate, not financial advice.

How do I work out what my points are worth on an award?
Find the cash price: Look up what the same flight, room or purchase costs in cash, on the same dates and in the same cabin or room type. Take away what you still pay: Subtract the taxes, fees and any cash part of the award. What is left is the cash the award saves you. Divide by the points: Divide the cash saved by the points the award costs, then multiply by 100 for cents per point. Compare with the program's value: Set the result against 0.6¢: 0.72¢ or more is a great deal, 0.54¢ to 0.72¢ a fair one, and under 0.54¢ a poor one.
Do taxes and fees count?
Yes. Subtract them from the cash price first, since you pay them either way. On an award that costs $500 in cash and $50 in taxes and fees, the points save $450, not $500.
