So, before I book any short hop US or AC segments, I want to be certain that the 500 mile minimum is still intact and that what happened with my coworkers just isn't another thing they need to fix in this transition mess.
In the past, I've flown on partners where no 500 mile minimum was specified, and I did not get 500 miles. Especially since the 500 mile minimum is listed on certain other partners, I think the chance of getting 500 miles on US after the transition issues are resolved is quite low.
