Under 0.72¢ each it is a poor deal, and paying cash keeps the miles for a better award. An award that saves $500 is a great deal at up to 52,083 miles, breaks even at 62,500 and is poor above 69,444.

How many miles should an award cost?
Find the cash the award saves (its cash price less taxes and fees), then read across. Fewer miles 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 | 10,416 | 12,500 | 13,888 |
| $250 | 26,041 | 31,250 | 34,722 |
| $500 | 52,083 | 62,500 | 69,444 |
| $1,000 | 104,166 | 125,000 | 138,888 |
| $2,500 | 260,416 | 312,500 | 347,222 |
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 miles. Divide the cash saved by the miles the award costs, then multiply by 100 for cents per mile.
Compare with the program's value. Set the result against 0.8¢: 0.96¢ or more is a great deal, 0.72¢ to 0.96¢ a fair one, and under 0.72¢ a poor one.
The 0.8¢ is Lounge Frog's estimate of what a Kuwait Airways Oasis Club mile 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.

Divide by the miles: Divide the cash saved by the miles the award costs, then multiply by 100 for cents per mile.
