The clock would reset with a cancel and rebook, but not with a change. However, I wouldn’t care to speculate on the likelihood that the F award would still be available for purchase every single day for a week; further, there’s no guarantee that a cancelled award seat will go back into the award bucket. The partner revenue management system might decide to reallocate it for a paid flight instead.
