Flex award for the same route is a ludicrous 625,000 miles.
What I have noted is that it appears they are offering revenue tickets for miles - so it might be interesting to see if they actually earn miles when flown...
The tickets I attempted to price were valued at INR 0.50 per mile...not exactly sure on the calculation, as I was pricing this out at 3am!
PS: Is it true that we cannot use the standard award redemptions on EY any longer? (At the old rates?)
