4@MVPG, 8@MVPG75K ×2, Used 1 GGU each on a companion certificate BLI-SEA-PDX-SEA-MSY & 1 each on MSY-SEA-BLI. The E175 PDX-SEA with confirmed F was downgraded to a Q400 but we continued on to MSY in F. AS returned 2 GGUs for the PDX-SEA downgrade even though we still flew SEA-MSY on the original GGUs. There is your 26.

I am in YLW so SEA is always my international port of entry when flying AS. With some flexibility I still find many eligible fares from SEA. I flew YLW-SEA-PHX-SEA-BOS-SEA-YLW first week of June. GGUs upgraded SEA-BOS-SEA, sat in 6A SEA-PHX and received a complimentary upgrade PHX-SEA. Very happy with that. I won't burn a GGU on a short flight, rather save them for the transcons, Hawaiian and international flights like CR. If I can tie multiple segments together with one GGU all the better.

We were in Maui last week, returned on Sunday. Companion certificate and GGUs secured U space on YLW-SEA-OGG-PDX-SEA-YLW with OGG-PDX-SEA connecting to F on the E175 in PDX.

As AS MVPG75K this itinerary earns 15,080 RDM which is enough for a RETURN flight YLW-SFO. Even at a rock bottom value of $230 return it makes the ~$400 F fare to/from OGG a pretty sweet deal.
