($4k for 12,500 flown miles is a good deal on some routes, particularly with DCA-PWM already at $436+/ow for many summer dates... I might end up even buying a regular Airpass because of the fares on this short route.)
Sorry I can’t answer the first question, but with regard to purchasing a regular Airpass for yourself, be sure to ask them exactly what you’re getting with the “Next Gen” Airpass they recently rolled out. I bought one with the $5k promo they were running earlier this year just to check it out, and there are major differences compared to some of the things you’ll see posted on the main Airpass thread, as many of those Airpass holders purchased theirs before the rules changed (for example, you can no longer use SWUs on Airpass tickets (J to F was a sweet spot), you won’t earn your companion’s miles, funds are debited immediately instead of why you actually fly, etc.). Per the Airpass reps, eventually everyone will be converted to the Next Gen Airpass, as contracts are renewed.
