Yes, flight taxes in the US are MUCH lower than here.

I wouldn't call it the best use of miles though as that fare is only about �250 and you'll often find it for half that as you get closer to the time. But I stopped using miles a few years ago, so might have outdated values in my head. And if you have more going spare than you'll use, may as well cash them in.
