Thanks. It's worth considering. I have a lot of RPUs between last year (Plat) and this year (150k PQMs and counting) and don't often fly long domestic routes in paid economy (e.g. they are often award tickets if for pleasure, and my firm allows biz class purchases for work-related long domestic routes) - and these expire Jan 2017. If the RPUs don't clear, do they auto-redeposit into my account? If I decide to call and get them back, do I need to do that by a certain timeframe? Since there's no R availability as of today, chances of additional R spaces opening up sound slim, right?
