Ok that beta site seems much better, thanks!

So here's what I did with the alerts. Can you tell me if this is the best way to set it up?
  • Google flights search from SLC to BOS.
  • Delta, AA, United, JetBlue, and Alaska fly that route on the dates I want.
  • I've got points in other partner airlines like British, Air Canada, Turkish, etc., that I'd prefer to use for a cheaper redemption.
  • Create an award alert on my dates between those two cities for Delta, AA, United, JetBlue, and Alaska.
  • As soon as I get an alert that something is available on one of those, I could then use points with a partner (ie British) to book the available award seat?
