I usually only fly First Class, plus I live in ALB so it's not the main hub (but all the majors fly here). Found two one-way F tickets to GJT (another hot bed of tourism to fly to/from) for 16.5k each way. MUCH better than the 158,000 miles UA wanted (each way) when I had looked back then. This december GJT-PVR round grip is only 30k coach or 75k First class. The cash pricing is $1,300 for the coach ticket, so I find that to be a very good value (out of GJT there's only AA or UA).

Had also found a 60k (?) redemption for SJD-ALB in First for this coming June (again way better than UA or DL). But I did manage to find a DL BOS-SJD on Delta One for 50k/ticket I believe.
