mikey, does that $300 limit include international flights? For international, I like to use my miles for upgrading to B/E and will pay the price of an upgradable ticket on DL.

The other major consideration that I have is where I stand for requalifying for elite status. As a GM on DL who never comes close to hitting PM, I tend to buy my tickets until I reach the 50k needed for GM. After that, I like to redeem my miles.

I would never fly coach International....So yes I use miles
