I am currently Platinum, but with my next paid flight I will move up to Platinum Pro and I have at least four flights scheduled before the end of the year.
Over the year I have tried to use my 500 mile upgrade whenever possible, but my upgrade percentage is very low. I don't recall if I ever got upgraded out of PHL. EWR and LGA are better, but I don't fly from them very often.

So I will end the year with 61 500 mile upgrades

For the next 15 months or so as Platinum Pro, I will have no use for them since Platinum Pro does not require sticker upgrades (anyway I am not sure how many upgrades I will get, maybe I will move from #20 to #10 on the list, but what will that help me?)

Last year I was EP and my 50 or so upgrades waited around for when I dropped back to Platinum. I am likely to drop back to Platinum (or possibly even gold) next year, but it doesn't feel like I will ever get to use them.

Is there any way I can get any value or use up these 500 mile upgrades? I can't even figure out any way to give them away.

Thanks,
