good point. i missed value of RDM
if we include value of RDM, it seems it is a beter choice to do MR than SR, from boston.

The 100K bis yields 200K RDM.

So - what are 80K RDM worth?
United's travel options thinks that they are worth 3 cents each, or $2400. More realistic valuation has them worth 1.5-2 cents each, or $1200-$1600
