What are the best SW values for redemptions? Hawaii? Coming from MDW/ORD

There’s no “best value” since the redemptions are tied to the price of the ticket on SW unlike the other legacy carriers.

Granted, I would compare the price of all airlines to find your true value. ORD is a fairly competitive market.

Trying to figure out where SW has a really great redemption value. Is it short haul/Hawaii, Mexico?

Southwest points now average 1.23 cents or so. Depends on the taxes and fees blah blah. But it’s a revenue based program, like jet blue and Spirit. Fear not, United and Delta are on their way to 1 cent per point as well.

I’d like to “make it” here but if it means switching career to make money I’d like to get an idea to make the right job change.

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?

Tried this Santorini retailing for $40. Very concentrated but can’t say I was blown away by it. Volcanic terroir dominates almost to the point of obscurity, and it had strong lemon notes, hints of quince, and sea salt. It clashed with Mexican food (hey I knew that beforehand but didn’t think it would clash THAT bad, and usually pair Mexican with Riesling or Gewürztraminer) but I’m going to Greece soon and wanted to drink Greek wine. I drank half at a BYOB, took the bottle home(cont’d)
