Grab yourself by the bootstraps.
This is honest to God what I truly detest about Skymiles.

Once a year isn't enough, program changes are made (often without advance notice) at any old time. The 72 hour rule came out in August of 2011 and was effective immediately. By the way, is everybody enjoying that wide open availability for close-in bookings? Anybody? Anybody at all? Yeah, that's what I thought.

Even Hilton Honors only devalues once a year.

With a big enough hit, my temporAAry defection might become more permanent.
