50% margins on FF programs?

Travel blogger says American Airlines was asked about sacrificing some margins for revenue growth at its earnings press conference, because the analyst noticed they charged high price for miles.

But the throwaway point is that FF programs have better than 50% margins and that may just be an invitation for banks to try to come and disrupt their business.
