i was rebooked to the following YUL-IAD (Y) and IAD-CLT (J). How many PQM will that give me?

also... I opted to catch an earlier flight since I was so early to the airport.

also when I click email receipt I get two. One with
NONREF/0VALUAFTDPT/CHGFEE;YUL POS END
and other with
INVOL;YUL POS END

what does that mean? Will I get ORC declind because I got an earlier flight?

(still in the plane lol)

What was your original route? Do you have elite status with UA? YUL-IAD-CLT is far short of 3100 PQM, even with a business multiplier (YUL-IAD-CLT) is only 810 miles. - so let's say 1000x2 is 2000 miles.

This is an easy case of getting ORC. I'm not sure what YUL POS END means - POS is probably point of sale? Maybe because you got rebooked at YUL.
