Always check the price of paid tickets before using miles. Even though 18,750 miles r/t will be a great buy for many destinations, purchasing a paid ticket will still make sense in some cases if you value your miles at at least 1.5 cents each, as I do.
CONCLUSION
Jackson Hole is a beautiful part of the country and a gateway to Yellowstone. If you have not been, I highly recommend it. This is an attractive promotion because these smaller United destinations often command higher fares. Nevertheless, double check paid fares before burning your miles.
