For someone heavy on LP's that needs to top off their segment count with a couple segments to hit the loyalty reward threshold, I think that serves as a pretty good value.
I'm very "heavy" on LP's but struggling for segments. Will be at a little over 300k LP's on my return flight Friday but only 18 segments. That run would be something to take a look at if I can to LAX cheaply later on in the year.
