Only questions I'd ask are, how quickly do Hertz miles usually post to this airline, and have you checked award availability once you get the miles? It would suck to wait 8 weeks for the miles to show up, or to get the miles and then discover there aren't any award seats when you need them.

If you post the airline name, others here may suggest if there are quicker or cheaper ways to get the miles.
It's for VS, Hertz usually posts in about 7 days. I don't need the miles immediatly, just thought it would be a good way to prepare and be ready when I have my plans set.
