Wanted to remind that today's the last date for the Air France Flying Blue promotion of 1 UR = 1.25 Flying Blue points. April is a really good month as part of monthly Flying Blue promotions, Air France is running a promotion for the flights from US (https://thepointsguy.com/deals/flying-blue-special-promo-rewards/).
I just booked a flight for family of 4 to Italy in 140,000 miles + $600. The regular ticket costs were $4200 for the same dates. This came out to a whopping conversion rate of 3.3 cents per UR point.
There are plenty of dates available at 15k miles from east coast/ 20k miles from west coast to Europe for tickets which generally cost $1k Round Trip.
