My thoughts exactly as those that thought CR1's were only worth $100 in CC I think now will see an increase in it's value when this new UG policy gets put into place.

The CR-1's will be worth more IMO with the new UG policy seeing as Hawaii and other destinations are $$$$.
$1000 and 35k miles for a RT UG to Hawaii OR 2 CR1's?
Great increase in value for us 1k's. If the SWU's are available on every fare class (hoping) we are sitting in a great position, although there will be more non 1k's that are able to go after UG's. The cost of
not being a 1k just went up huge.
