I won't make Globalist next year if that matters.
In the past, I've always tried to hold my Chase for first and business on Korean and Singapore or to top off Southwest or to use for top category Hyatts like PH Paris or Sydney. I just wasn't use to seeing rates this low at PH Sydney.
Was just typing out the typical 'without knowing how you usually use URs, it's impossible to ascertain the value proposition' post. But if your goal is to use URs for premium cabin awards, I think it's a no-brainer to hold off on transferring URs.

Again, it's dependent on your travel patterns but even if you're just looking to pare down the UR balance, I don't think it's that difficult to do better than 1.7 c/p at Hyatt.
