You can do better than that. Including the preferred bonus, get as close as you can to 25,000 without going over. As a gold, I use SFO-TLV. Buy the triple for $599, and you get just under 50,000 miles. That is 1.2 cpm, and with the promo it's 0.8 cpm. Too bad you have to actually fly it to get the bonus!
