A sky mile is 2000 meters.

I'm guessing there's a website for this, but that wouldn't have afforded you the not-so-subtle bragability.

Anywhere from zero to four depending on the flight and class of service

Travel board question, but this is your answer.

FWIW, I just got four tickets from MSY to a west coast city for 92,000 Delta miles a couple months ago.

Depends on where you are going. Most likely, two.

Argument is 100 sky pesos : $1, but not a firm rule. I saw some $167 flights for 10,000 miles and others on the same day for $175/17,500.

Delta doesn't publish their award chart so it's tough to figure out the formula.

ETA: Searching on delta using flexible days will help you maximize those miles.

ETA2: I had a flight canceled recently due to a delta frickup. I got 20k miles and another ticket on the itinerary without a skymiles number got a $200 voucher.

It all depends on the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow.

Closer seats to the exit so when they send the cops to drag your arse off, carpet burn will be minimized.

Not enough to waste on a domestic flight. Save up some more for a trip abroad.
