A slightly different twist: On a domestic trip if one is planning to upgrade flight anyway with 30,000 miles (AA) for round trip, you can get R/T F award for 40,000 miles. That effectively makes the price of a coach ticket 10,000 miles, lowering the price I'm willing to pay for that same coach ticket from my usual limits.
