The LUCK4 Award is now 110,000 points, the same as a $400 Tiffany & Co gift certificate. This leads me to a better idea for free travel:

1) Redeem your miles for HHonors points.
2) Redeem your HHonors points for a Tiffany gift certificate.
3) Use it to buy jewelery.
4) Give it to a potential significant other who is well off.
5) Go on lots of "free" trips with his/her money.

One creative idea begets another.
