On another note, do you guys consider it a waste to use these points on domestic flights? Seems almost everyone is using them for international flights, but honestly, world travel isn't interesting to my wife, so I think my best usage is domestic flights. Would like to go to Hawaii sometime in the next year, but other than that, no where special.
We go to FLL regularly because we take cruises out of there.
I don't want to "waste" my points, or under use their value, but am not looking to go to China/Singapore/etc. I would like to see Australia, but don't know that I want to travel that far. I have about 400K in UR points currently.

One more comment/question.
I price a flights on Delta Lex-Fll on the dates I need, and it would cost me either (for 2 tickets) $1500 or 160K skymiles on Delta's site, or 105K miles booking thru Chase's site.
How is the best way to determine if booking on the Chase UR site is the best value? I could also consider Southwest out of SDF, and transfer points to my account there, but I'm having a hard time determining what is the best value choice to make.

Generally speaking, you get the best value when you use points towards very expensive international flight award trips. With that said, they are your points and you should do whatever you want with them. A lot of people hoard points bc they keep telling themselves one day they will use it on some lavish vacation. Well it is getting more and more difficult to use points towards these lavish trips.
