These point levels are current as of July 15th, 2007, however, since point levels are subject to change please contact a ThankYou Network Travel Specialist for the most current point pricing.
I've added the previous (current?) point levels to your table ...

Well, so much for that ... I was saving up for two Biz class tickets to Hawaii, but this makes the cards next to worthless for that, might as well just use a regular mileage program.
