Booking Phoenix–New York with points starts with the cabin, then the program. The cheapest economy seat connects once; skipping the connection means an economy nonstop on either carrier at a higher price. Taxes and fees on the economy floor run about $6, in line with the route's typical economy taxes. Business runs about 2.7 times the economy price. Hold off on converting flexible points until the seat is confirmed bookable; there's no undoing a transfer.
American AAdvantage wins economy at 9,500 points and business class at 25,500. Its first-class fare from 25,000 points connects, which usually means first on one leg only; read every segment. The other four programs include Delta SkyMiles, United MileagePlus, and JetBlue TrueBlue. Even with American AAdvantage on top, a last cross-check before transferring is cheap insurance.
JetBlue and Delta both show nonstop award space on Phoenix–New York. Delta's SkyTeam membership opens its seats to partner programs across the alliance, not just Delta SkyMiles. If you're open to a stop, the better-priced connecting awards in the data run through Los Angeles. Only five airlines show award inventory on the route, so a route alert is the surest way to catch new saver space.
On the New York side, Newark (EWR) starts at 10,000 points in economy, close to the route's 9,500-point economy floor and worth pricing when JFK space is thin; LaGuardia (LGA) prices from 15,000. Newark also logs nonstop flights from Phoenix in the data. The return, New York to Phoenix, has its own page, since award pricing can differ by direction. Phoenix to Chicago prices the same, from 9,500 points at last check.
