I usually enjoy them and I take a about 5 or ten a year based on finding low fares and interesting places. I am almost upfront in F since I am a top tier elite. My next scheduled one is DTW to SFO. I will watch a couple of Movies(if interesting), enjoy a few meals with wine, catch up on some reading and correspondence, and walk the hills of San Francisco. The cost of the flight is $206 and I will get over 25,000 miles. That sounds better than watching the Floida recount or the Leveland Browns. The only negative is that I have to traverse Detroit Metro twice.
