(Would love to be reassured that I needn't have to do this, of course...)
There should be data points in early July, so don't make any changes yet. If necessary, after 1 July, you can make another reservation if booking on points is still available. Then you can cancel your old reservation. You don't want to cancel now because there's no assurance you'll be able to re-book on points in July.
