The last 5 years, I've been able to snag 9 RT tickets to/from Hawaii using the Delta SkyMiles that I earned using the Delta AMEX. As I'm sure everyone suspected following the recent economic downturn, the gravy train will be over soon:
"...the current system allows 25,000 SkyMiles or 50,000 Skymiles to be used to get a reward ticket in coach for a domestic roundtrip flight.... The new system will allow 25,000, 40,000 or 60,000 SkyMiles to be used for roundtrip flights."
FirstClass domestic will be as high as 75,000 SkyMiles. (edited to add: I should have said 100,000 SkyMiles.)
International First Class will be as high as 370,000 SkyMiles.
