Whether I'd get it or not is a different question.. but I think it's at least a reasonable request.

sadly, K was the lowest available on AS 1 ... I think I mentioned earlier that AS 3 (evening flight) was ~$70 less

I forwarded the original confirmation email to AS CS, asking for a reissue of the GGU as well as another 12k miles (rationale being that 15k is what an MVP or non-status passenger w/o access to a GGU would have to spend for an upgrade, of course presuming availability of U space)

we shall see ...
