Last year, i used 2 for myself LGA-PVG, and gave 4 to a friend for a LAS-BKK trip scheduled for January 2010. Confirmed upgrades at time of booking, but wouldn't you know it, they cancled the trip in December, so I ended up using them for upgrades EWR-HNL last week since they would have expired anyway.

This year I am trying to figure out how to use 14 LOL (8 in my account and 6 in my wifes!)
