Even though CapitalOne calls their rewards "miles" they are not transferable to any airline and have a fixed value of $0.01 each. In this sense they are simply a restricted form of cash. The advantage of real airline miles is that they do not have a fixed cash value.

In which cabin do you fly to Europe: economy or business?
