Even a bit more if you factor the warm beverage. Better than the 10.52 CPM of cash rewards…
Air Miles Gold members get a discount and can redeem this for only 240 miles.
There might be similar deals in other regions.

That is good. The 40% off Greyhound ticket for 150 isn't too bad either if you're going long distances.
