Given how hard it's been (at least for me) to actually be able to use the Hertz points for actual rental reward redemptions (sorry, that location doesn't participate, or it's a diff. season, can't book online, etc.), I found more value transferring to airline partners (not all of them mind you, as southwest was about a 50% reduction if I recall correctly)

But YMMV.
I've never had a challenge redeeming points (occasionally have had to call when the website wasn't working), and I never get less than 12 cents/point, and sometimes over 30 cents/point. My average is 18-19 cents. I redeem for Manhattan weekend rentals, which are typically well above $100/day, and can top $200/day in the summer, so 550-1100 points is a pretty darn good deal.
