At minimum 50k gets a domestic first class on United. But what I am trying to figure out is if their award map calculator is right and it's only 35k for domestic first on United which is a great deal.
I would normally not redeem my United miles for domestic first...but if it's part of an orphan bonus offer from a non-core bank, then it's a good option for me.
