Got another good one. Family member wanted to meet me in Cor De Laine ID for the 4th.
SFO-GEG 7/2 and back on 7/7 with a stop in DEN (not the direct flight) $1400 (coach of course). The same ticket on miles was north of 100K. Needless to say he isn't going. To be fair other carriers were not much better.
