Even under normal circumstances, this should be considered a very good mileage run candidate. $0.034 per status mile is pretty good in general. However, add in the current Delta double base miles and the yield is great. Even better if you're a current Delta elite flyer. You could easily get the cents per mile down into the 1 to 2 cent range. In any case, it's well worth considering.
