UA J sucks enough to make me want to pay it

Will I have to do that seperately for if I only see avail in one direction? Would I have to pay the $90 again if I see the second leg open up after and another chunk of points?
If you booked two one ways, you do it separately and pay twice. If you booked a round trip, you pay once, but you pay 90k miles even if you only get J one way.

Note that if you pay for J, you can also sit in PY if it's available, and request an upgrade at the airport into either cabin.
