Inside Take
You can compare the redemption rates of this sale to when award charts used to exist, as you would have needed to redeem a minimum of 80,000 SkyMiles for a round-trip flight between South Africa and the United States; and a minimum of 60,000 SkyMiles for a round-trip flight between Europe and the United States. Portions of this sale are very good — especially some of the SkyMiles redemption components and not most of the cash components, in my opinion — and award seat availability is not scarce for many of these offers at the time this article was written…
…and 28,000 SkyMiles is the lowest redemption rate I have ever seen round trip between the 48 contiguous United States and London. If you have always wanted to go to London and the dates work for you, I would jump on this one if you have enough SkyMiles to redeem — as well as low as 30,000 SkyMiles to Paris or Amsterdam.
Round trip travel to or from South Africa is as low as 54,000 SkyMiles, which is definitely also worth the redemption.
