Is this a good MR redemption?

it's average for flights, but domestic flights aren't good use of points, international trips you would've have gotten much more. Amex to Aeroplan to fly United 75k points from Florida to Japan/Korea/Vietnam ticket price around $2,800 in the summer.

I have 100k MR points. Any suggestiveness for bookings? Looking for something first or business with the best value. Pretty much open to any travel to a decent destination.

I think you did pretty well for domestic travel. If the price you gave was per ticket, then you did rather well. I have used 25k alaska miles on an $800 domestic flight. So, it's possible the prices you gave were per ticket. If so, that is about 3 cents per point.

yea book a brother up for a ticket to Vietnam in May 75k points will offer 1.33 cpm lol jk =)

So I checked out British airways and tried to do a flight search from msy to tul and kept getting error message. Am I doing something wrong?

I purchase a lot of tickets from msy to tul round trip throughout the year, for my daughter to fly to her dads it would be nice to use points for some of these flights.

The avios calculator only works by segment. So if the flight is MSY to TUL direct, it should work. But if it connects anywhere, you need to book each segment. That's why I showed you MSY-->DFW, then DFW-->TUL. 4500 avios per segment. I usually use the aa website first to figure out my route (and confirm available tix), then check BA using the exact route on the day I'm looking for.
