And thats about all SW can brag about. Not much else.
Does SW have any flexibility or any options to get me to exotic destinations by using their frequent flyer program? Probably not. One of the many great things about Delta (and other legacy's) is the options and choices with redeeming miles.
My honeymoon in Bora Bora was courtesy of Delta Air Lines skymiles. It cost me about $100.00 to redeem 150K miles for a RT ticket in BE class. Not bad. I could never in a million years do half the things with SW miles (or whatever they call them) as with skymiles. With SW, there are boundries, way to many of them for my liking.
