Though it does raise the point of how those redemptions are issued -- some person, presumably an individual on our internal corporate travel team -- will have to handle the redemption of 3 million SkyBonus points, even if they are redeemed for certificates. Though I suppose that's not different from how they'd be handled if they were offered to senior executives (the traditional way of disposing of such airline benefits).
