Recapping the costs of getting a cash advance on a Citi Visa/MC:

Since Cirrus and Star charge 1% foreign exchange fees for ATM transactions, you need to add the extra 2% you lose to find out your total charges (i.e. you need to add the hidden charges to the disclosed ones): $25 + $9 + $11 + 7 = $72

If you divide the 800 miles by 72, then you get a cost per mile of 11.1 cents, or about 7.5 times as much what a mile is worth (about 1.5 cent).

Yuck!
