Not Worth It Without a Specific Need
$60 for 3,000 redeemable miles is two cents per mile. A knowledgeable Delta frequent flyer with free time and not married to a limited number of routes can usually find redemption value equal to two cents a mile. However, getting more than two cents per mile is difficult. Therefore, this "deal" is not worth it -- unless a person is angling for a specific redemption and is just a few miles short.
