Colour me stupid / naive, but the cynic inside of me is strong, and with current BF loads on these flights looking like:

Friday 8/15
UA 900 - 0/40
UA 931 - 8/40

Saturday 8/16
UA 900 - 2/40
UA 931 - 10/40

Sunday 8/17
UA 900 - 0/40
UA 931 - 1/40

Monday 8/18
UA 900 - 14/40
UA 931 - 1/40

....I would be surprised if UA didn't open up at least *some* I space once they're able to charge the higher redemption rates
