How many E-Upgrade Credits do you let expire

Hi,

I am curious to see how many E-Upgrade credits other flyers let expire. This year I am going to be 51. I have asked my friends etc, but know one needs them. I flew paid J and latitude pass (100% success at complimentary upgrades) and had some operational upgrades the odd time I was not in J.

Generally none. One year I flew the BEH exclusively and didn't get a chance to use my e-ups at all; other than that, I use 'em all.

0 and maybe 4

Looks like I blasted through 40 easily this year. Though with IKK, chances are I will be redeeming 90% of the flights from now on. So I expect I will play gate santa next year and upgrade random strangers. :P

I have 10 remaining, but my nominee is exceptionally efficient at using them

Though he's waitlisted on a flight on Thursday, so that number could jump up to 20.

Looks like 53 expiring this month.
A little less than previous years ( except the one year where I gave all the expiring
ones, plus some current ones to another FTer). Being a lowly 75K this year I received
fewer than previous years to start, although I earned the extras for up to 100K.

For the first time, I will only let a few expire this year, mostly owing to the fact that I have done a couple of US trips where I have been able to get a pod (SFO) and upgrade to PE internationally. Last year I let about 60 eUp credits expire whereas this year I will only have 11 left over.

Didn't use any. Surprisingly all my AC flights last year were booked in J. All my Y flights were on other carriers.

Didn't use any. Corp policy is Tango < 4 hours and Biz internationally leaves little value for me.

I have 9 left that expire at the end of this month.

I don't have any plan to use them, but that could change.

They may be available for someone else to use.

I have 10 expiring at the end of Feb. I have a TATL in PY that I could use some on (plus some from next year) but co-pay is pretty high.

I've got 0 expiring this year. Doesn't take long to burn through 30 credits. Also much easier to use this past year I found.
