I use mine for economy round trips for my husband and myself, usually off-peak to Europe. I know a lot of Flyertalkers are shuddering as they read this, but by off-peak, I mean late fall or late spring. We rarely fly domestically, so using our miles this way is a good value to us.

Our orphan miles usually get transferred into Hilton.
