So does this mean - you can select the SWU option end of Dec 2022, then you can book the ticket using the SWU in Dec 2023, for travel in Nov, 2024? (AA only allows booking 11 months ahead.)
Yes and yes. I haven't selected any rewards for this reason, since I don't have any international travel booked, so selecting them now just starts the clock.
