Is for you to do the work if you want an award flight. Many folk are not interested in awards, but other benefits of the ffp's.
The third link in post 3 above has a useful link to a thread with an on line redemption calculation tool. Is very much work in progress.
Every award for every FFP can and is different due to the program rules, status, routes, currency exchanges rates, real government taxes and carrier imposed fees. There are 1000's of possible combinations. Any way, we can never keep up the ffp rules: always to look at the airline web sites.
As for "ex-USA" this is the world wide web and a significant portion of FT members are not, and do not want to be, residents of the USA or do not want to visit USA.
