I'm also too lazy to quote everyone but have a few things to share with the group on this gloriously sunny Saturday (at least in SW Ontario it is!!)
Mega Miles historical data:
We're in a bit of an echo chamber here gang, this is a Disney forum and most of us have redeemed our miles for multiple Disney & Universal tickets. Until I started this thread i had NEVER redeemed for tickets of any kind (i know, gasp, but it's true ) I've only ever redeemed for one set for Disney & one for Universal. Whenever i mention to people that they are something you can redeem miles for it seems to be brand new information to them. We don't go very often (again, gasp!) and most visits have been done with a package or we bought the tickets thru CAA. I agree with all of you that the new ticketing system won't be something that AM will want to (or even be able to) tackle, do you remember how long they still had the non-expiring CDN tickets available AFTER Disney stopped selling them? They weren't able to get rid of the stock before the "sale" was over, I have no idea what they'll do this time since they now expire. Do i think this is the end of Disney tickets? Not sure, not much of a gambler, but by looking at the math some of you put out there, i'm leaning towards a strong "possibly"
Most people use their Airmiles for travel related rewards, flights, hotels & car rentals. There's also a LARGE group of people who collect them and never really comprehend how to actually USE THEM (our D-I-L's mother has close to 100,000 sitting in her account, yes, you read that number correctly )
And those are the thoughts of The Duck
