if y&d and d&g are flying prior to 15 may, your 80k aa mi can get 4 1 way saver awards putting y'all on the same flights...then you could use the ua for y & g's return...assuming may 15 is the cut off for saver in 2012...
i haven't looked at the ua award chart, nor do i have a clue re cap1...
good luck...
