While the 100% bonus could make the promo useful for some, currently I am very much avoiding paying real money for any "private" currency, be it hotel or airline points/miles. Call me fiscally conservative, if you want

I had the same feeling a decade ago, when QE started in the major economies and yet inflation has been very low, money has been very cheap (or even free)* - must throw out all those economics textbooks of yesteryear.

So this is rather CRAPPY
a great thank you to those of us who did NOT cancel our trips and take our cash but instead rebooked...
I guess I have to cancel ALL my AY J trips now...
not cool AY! While I understand that AY needs cash but still stings for those who just rebooked cancelled flights to help AY keep cash in the coffers!
