One interesting thing is that the medallion awards will show up booked as N. They do bucket above N though.
However, ND and NK or RD/OD and RK/OK do appear at least on the receipt, right? I don't think this appears during the booking process, although if you search by segments for award inventory you figure it out. Also, if one segment is low and one medium, I assume the booking looks like RD followed by O (rather than OD) for example, so that if I later find R, I'm already holding the O on my PNR/ticket and I can just replace the RD by an R segment to get some miles refunded. Is this right?
