And 50K MR points gets you 75K Delta Skymiles, which would be enough for 3 domestic airline tickets and up to five domestic round trips. Pretty good deal if you ask me, especially depending on how you earned the MR points. I earn a lot of mine by charging items that earn me 3x MR points. So I charge $17K, earn 50K MR points, get 75K Delta SM and get up to five domestic round trips for $17K in charging. Pretty good if you ask me. And yes, I am differentiating "tickets" from "trips."
