If you are keen, make sure there are still availabilities, cancel the redemptions and book revenue flights & UuA.

As already stated earlier by LeisureFirst, it can be an excellent way of doing things. In particular WT+ to CW is great, as you can almost claw back the Avios used for UuA (the rates from WT+ to CW is half of what it takes from CW to F too).
