Is 3) required? There is no mention of it on the United chart. And current US <700 miles awards do not have to be non-stop. For instance, BOS-IAD-DTW requires 10,000 miles and is not non-stop and the distance with the stop is greater than 700 miles (BOS-DTW is 633, while BOS-IAD-DTW is 796 miles).

So I think the rules will be
1) Travel within the same region
2) Non-stop flight distance 800 miles or less
3) Connections possible according to usual routing rules


Edit: The partner award chart has a non-stop restriction. It seems that non-US low-mileage awards have different rules than US ones
