Any insights on this, thanks so much!
To follow up on this and I just want to make sure i heard what SQ told me and see if others received this. I've decided to keep my award ticket in open status and they said I can book a trip by January, 31 2021. I don't need to fly by this date but will have until January 31 2022 to complete travel. Does this sound right? I had a bad connection and I was having a little trouble understanding the representative so hope to confirm here or will call back and hopefully have a better connection.

Thank you all for your help!
