SLU graduation travel, handled for the whole family
Graduation weekend at Saint Louis University means relatives flying into St. Louis from every corner of the map — and the most expensive weekend of the year to do it. Pointify gets every guest onto one plan into St. Louis Lambert (STL), pools the family's points, helps line up a hotel block, and splits the cost so nobody's stuck fronting the trip or missing the ceremony.
What we take off your plate
Relatives flying in from everywhere
Grandparents from Florida, an aunt from Seattle, the sibling at another school — graduation pulls family in from every direction. Pointify routes each guest to St. Louis Lambert (STL) from their own city on one shared plan, so you're not fielding a dozen "what flight should I book?" texts.
Lock the weekend before fares spike
Graduation weekend is the single most expensive weekend of the year to fly into St. Louis. Pointify watches fares and award space across every guest's route and flags the moment to book — and where one family member's miles can cover seats for the rest.
One hotel block, zero spreadsheet
Campus hotels sell out a year out. Tell us how many rooms you need and we'll help coordinate a block near SLU, keep everyone's arrival times aligned, and track who's paid for what — no group-chat accounting.
Split it clean across the family
Whoever fronts the deposit shouldn't eat the cost. Pointify's built-in expense splitting shows a live "who owes whom" across flights, hotel, and the celebration dinner, then settles up in the fewest payments.
