I know that you should be limited by the more restrictive of the two. Is this the case even after I fly the outbound? I'd rather avoid a YMMV/HUACA situation should I wish to change the return.
It really depends on the particular fare rules. One thing: before you buy these expensive tickets, have you confirmed that an upgrade is available and how many miles it will require? I thought 25k upgrades went up in May.
