Recently booked BKK-LHR-BKK for 130,000 miles with Jet Airways (of India), my previous redemption (four years ago ?) was with Qatar and only cost about 70-75k, on the other hand any saving is better than nothing !

I hope that's in Business Class because 130K for an economy seat on Jet Airways is - shall we say - less than a bargain.

That's 130k airmiles , not baht, for a journey of several thousand miles each way, in Economy.

I view any airmile-redemption as being a bonus, since I'm already making a good saving, when I booked the original tickets/flights, which then earned the miles.

But there certainly does seem to be a trend these days, to devalue outstanding airmiles, I merely gave one example from personal experience.

Yes, I know it's in miles. rolleyes.gif

That said, it's a lot of miles for an economy class award ticket. Everyone values miles differently and if you think it's a good deal, then good for you.
