This is what I have also been using my miles for. However I am not happy with the change that means taxes and fees are inclusive as the minimum miles that you need to spend per booking (on the routes that I looked last night) has gone from 100 miles + cash to 300 miles + cash. Not sure how it nets out but it means that x number of miles will give me less opportunities to book last minute fares
