I'm really impressed with AA's generosity in this regard..

I was able to cash out my AA miles for a RT business class ticket from LAX to PPT, pretty much the only airline where I could have done that (Air France flies there but doesn't really release award space to partners). As far as I'm concerned, AA rocks!!!
