Not sure what routes you are trying to redeem on or which airlines but my family and I have redeemed over 250k on AA over the past six months.

Also, we get the point of your irritation but please refrain from using certain "f" words even if you've swapped letters with *.

Thanks! </font>
Well, I have changed my post to reflect your etymological preference, but I have to say I am very angry about what the airlines are doing and I think vulgarity is the only means to express frustration at their deceit. I have had five conversations with airline reps in the last two months where they have admitted to me that they have reduced miles seats by 50% on some flights. I think it is great that you have gotten flights out of Phoenix, but there is ZERO availability to get flights to high-traffic destinations from my point of view (Florida, California, Hawaii, New Orleans, Europe). I have redeemed 225k in just the last six months, only one ticket at the 25k mark.
