All told, we have about 320k miles but will need about 700k (175k miles per ticket). So, about $1.9k per ticket (and we'll just pay for the child b/c his ticket is $3.3k, which is less than if we bought the miles for him).

Has anyone used mileageclub.com to buy miles? Any reviews?

Or any other recs on how to get a ton of miles quickly? I have to finalize payment this week.
