Was original post
Dont complaint
I pay 350 for platinum
The trouble for some potential cardholders - especially in the slickdeals crowd - is that flying in biz/first isn't really a necessity, especially on relatively short transatlantic flights. And yes, points can go toward economy/prem econ travel, although those redemption rates tend not to be as dramatic. And any of the advantages requires transferring to an airline partner, which may or may not work out for a given itinerary. Ultimately, if you don't really want to play the transfers game to get premium tickets, then the MR award suddenly becomes far less exciting.

Well, the one I mention is over 8 hours, one way... being able to arrive not just well fed, but well rested, is pretty fantastic, often giving you a free day each way that you'd have otherwise spent tired and jet-lagged.
Even more so on longer flights.
Well, the person to whom I was responding was specifically asking for examples of the highest value ways to redeem the points.
You can of course do econ redemptions too, and they won't ever be 10 cents a point, but they'll virtually always be a LOT better than any non-airline option in value..... (avios for short haul domestic- especially when a transfer bonus is being offers- is a great example of that)
