Thanks very much for that. Just want to make sure I'm getting this right...
When I book the ticket it will be 50,000 miles for roundtrip to Bucharest 7/4 to 7/18. At the time of booking there are no saver pass economy seats available on the 21st. I call later (still beyond the 21 day travel period) to add the layover in Paris on the original return date and then complete the trip from there on the 21st. Even though there was/is no economy saverpass award seat available, according to the online calendar, on that later date (the 21st) the original 50,000 mile charge will remain unchanged?
That's pretty convenient if I've got it right.
