I guess it's possible. For the record, I have booked several similar awards )for myself and others) and have never noticed the miles NOT being deducted instantaneously.
That said, of course it's always possible the miles could be deducted at some point between now and when he flies. BUT, let's say they don't get deducted... Will he be denied boarding?
