Let's not forget the US FC SBA-SFO-PHL-BWI-CLT-FPO RT for $46. 9268 EMQ's with 500 minimums (of course I put it into either LH or BMI for 3x RDM's,) comes to .00496.

You didn't get it. I have to fly from Germany to MSP, I have to pay whatever fare I can find. Germany to MSP is not a mileage run. The mileage run comes into play if I take a weekend and fly from MSP to Brasil, that's where Delta pays me. You on the other hand don't have to buy your Lamborghini, a Chevy Malibu might do the job, so yes, that calculation would be wrong.

You're getting a reduced rate if you NEST a flight in that happens to be cheaper.
I've rented a few Malibu's. They're just not for me.

I remember 0.04CPM (2499 delta miles for $1) in 2013 as long as you can turn your suntrust bank account fast enough. It lasted for years but I was too lazy and too busy...
