Yes, I'm talking about the sign up bonuses of 50k and 40k (90k). You'll find most folks here get the majority of their points through signing up for credit cards and getting the sign up bonus and manufacturing "fake" spend to "buy" miles at a low cost. Signing up for just those 2 cards, as I said, would be more than enough for a r/t ticket on EK in coach and about 2/3 of the way there for business.
