CX G was from AMEX. It's been useful for getting free AC access domestic and for crediting YVR JFK in Y.

Well if it's the RT price and that's the RT miles then its 5.5CPM which belongs here. Although this forum is not for guessing games (that's what trick it is for)

I come up with $584.90 on continental.com 3/15-17. 3/15-3/18 for ~$560.
Connections through FRA but the bad part is the FRA-IST-FRA is in T class which does not accrue mileage on CO or UA. If for some reason it does accrue EQM, then we have a seriously good mileage run here.
