What's a TrueBlue 2 point worth??
 
I'm compiling some data for another blog post and I had this so I figured I'd share. I'm sure there is another thread with similar info (because I posted it there, too) but I cannot find it so I'll just start another one. The range of dates in my sample is pretty limited but the range of values varies sufficiently that I believe it has both extremes included. The good news is that it seems the low value end of the TB2 points has been shored up; your points are now worth a bit more and you didn't have to do anything to get that increase.

The extremes seem to be .95 cents at the low end and 1.35 cents at the high end. No surprise that last seat availability costs more; at lest not double like RR2.

You are complaining that RR2 costs double???... but RR2 points are worth 1.0 at the last minute and 1.67 for all WGA fares. TB2 is only work 0.95 at the last minute and 1.35 at best. Oh, and TB2 can change the value of their point at anytime without notice better OR WORSE, and the minimum points to redeem is 5,000 points one-way regardless of fare. To me, RR2 points seem to be worth more than TB2 points.
