I'm pricing out a trip right now between JFK and Phoenix at Christmastime and seeing the same thing – my points are worth 1¢ versus the cash fare. Is there some rhyme or reason to this? It's really annoying for these points to be worth 30% less than I've been thinking they were worth... What am I missing here?
TrueBlue points tend to be worth less for higher fare classes (i.e. more expensive flights).
