This route runs from Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) to Buenos Aires (EZE). United Airlines carries all of the nonstop award space in the data. The Boeing 777-200 shows up on those nonstop award segments. Nonstops make up only about 3% of the award options in the data; the rest connect.
Booking Houston–Buenos Aires with points starts with the cabin, then the program. The cheapest economy seat connects once; skipping the connection means an economy nonstop on United Airlines at a higher price. The economy floor adds about $6 in taxes and fees, below the route's typical economy taxes. Premium economy runs about 1.5 times the economy price and business about 2.7 times. Transfers out of bank programs can't be reversed, so confirm the exact flight is bookable first.
American AAdvantage takes economy at 22,000 points and premium economy at 33,000. Air Canada Aeroplan is cheapest in business class at 60,000 points. American AAdvantage lists first class from 82,500 points, but the fare connects, which usually means first on one leg only; read every segment. Among the remaining six programs, Air France-KLM Flying Blue, United MileagePlus, and Delta SkyMiles are good places to cross-check.
The data has one nonstop award carrier on Houston–Buenos Aires: United Airlines. Its Star Alliance membership means alliance partners can sell that seat too, not only United MileagePlus. If you're open to a stop, the better-priced connecting awards in the data run through Dallas/Fort Worth.
The data shows no same-metro alternate airports on either end of Houston–Buenos Aires, so the main airports are the ones to watch. Miami to Buenos Aires matches this route at 22,000 points at last check. Two cheaper options from Houston: Cabo San Lucas from 12,500 points and Amsterdam from 15,000.
