I can't bite the bullet and pay 140K open-jaw round trip. I still use two cents a mile which comes to $2800 per ticket. I have priced HSV-OSL with KEF-HSV in July 2017 in business for $3070 earning over 20,000 miles; a much better deal (to me) than miles. I will save my miles for one way tickets where it is hard to get cheap paid business class tickets. I need to explore Amex for hotel points; i have never used them for that.
