Well, yes and no, depends on how much the cash ticket is and how much you value FB miles. At my date for this route, it's about 150€ per ticket. I personally value 1 FB mile around 1 eurocent (FB and amex value 1 mile around 0.4 to 0.5 eurocent though). Taxes on this route are marginal (3.50€ per pax). Considering that the award ticket would have zero fees for cancellation (unlike a revenue ticket), 12000 miles per ticket is not that bad. Not great, but not terrible either - provided of course it can be booked...
