16 CPM if you're elite (500 mile minimums) - or 8 cents for a 1K if you're counting RDM.

How about if I use a $50 e cert? :)

The hilarious part about that / the whole special in general is if you were actually booking for three people, you could book a car service round trip for less than the cost of two tix.

I assume taking a plane would be considered cheating though.

I apologize if this question has already been answered elsewhere....

Are miles earned on these specials when cash and miles are combined? thank you
