Not impossible, but I would say unlikely. Last year the extra SWUs at 125K EQM was specifically tied to the Double EQM (AADER) promotion. I think the likelihood that they'd add it after the fact is slim.

This is why the whole DEQM is not of use to us, really. We have 70K booked. 20K is during the period, but already booked. If we did cancel and rebook (paying penalty and any fare diff) it would get us to 90K by May. But we have a trip to MCO to plan, and probably want to do a Europe trip or two to burn off excess SWUs anyway, so there's little point in getting the extra EQMs. Maybe change two of the transcons (and pay) to turn 70K into 80K in the present scheme. Bigger fish to fry at present

Cheers.
