Our first ever 241 redemption was on the fast plane, cannot recall the exact amount it cost... but whatever it was... IMHO the best use of miles ever. Especially since it too was a significant anniversary and SWMBO and I were totally spoiled by the crew when they found out it was our first Concorde as well as a special occasion.
