So I almost have a enough points for 2 BXP1 awards. After some early Aug flights post next month I will have enough. The flight I'm targeting currently has C4 availability. Is it possible to secure the upgrade even though I won't redeem points for the certs until next month? The flight is several months out so plenty of time for points to post and get the certs prior. I just want to grab the C availability before it's gone. It seems if the BE rep doesn't ask for serial numbers this could be possible, no?

They didn't use to ask for serial numbers or expiration dates, but lately they have been. I just redeemed another one for September and they asked for all of the information on the BXP1. So I would wait until you have it. I doubt they will give you the upgrade without having used your points for it yet
