Although it would just be good common business sense to restore this bene, I won't believe this until I see it.

So now I need to spend 25K more miles for my Asian F awards. With my flying pastern it will take me about 70 more less-than-500-mile segments to make up the difference. I think we won the battle but lost the war.
