Redeeming your points for cruises will give your points a value of about 0.31 cents per point, but that can vary depending on the cruise and if any active promotions are present when booking.

Point transfers to partners: 0.2 to 0.4 cents per point

Choice Hotels Points can be transferred to 10 travel partners. The transfer ratio will depend on the partner, but the most common ratio is 5:1 meaning that 5,000 Choice Points will give you 1,000 points or miles.

Transferring Choice Points to partners isn't the best redemption option due to the very low ratio, but it can be a solid option if you're looking to top off one of your frequent flyer accounts.
