Which is weird as you would think they would rather get miles off the books instead of granting SWUs as flight date approaches for long hauls which, aside from business, usually aren't last minute purchases, but I guess they're hoping for either a walk up purchase or a miles+copay. Been on all sides of this, so I'm agnostic on the answer.
