<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">What elite status FFer in their right mind would even consider a domestic award other than when it has been discounted to the 15K level? Use of such amounts of miles/points are better made as upgrades on long-haul, discounted coach paid trips, never for a flight that could otherwise be purchased for under $300 with similar restrictions</font>
Yes, but remember the vast majority of FF programme members are not the elite flyers you find here on FT. I know many people who do redeem for a continental US ticket w/ miles and think it's a great deal.

I'm attempting to use them as fast as I can (even at 25k miles), because I believe that a year from now one or more of the programs will no longer exist.

What's the value of an Ansett Airlines mile? Anyone?
