While the earning potential is unlimited (of course I'm sure someone can figure out how many you could ACTUALLY earn if you flew EVERY day of the year) there is a practical limit, unlike UDU.

The terminology is UA's: Unlimited Regional Upgrades... CR1 no longer applies so I suspect that URU is not too far behind. SWU is already established so I do not see much movement there...
