I was already waiting for that last point, and I'm not heartsick over the rest. Just pretty glad I held out for a better offer! Next year won't be a heavy flight year for us, but we'll be really constrained on flight timings... without the free changes we've had for the past forever, CP will be just as valuable. I was really wondering how much I was willing to pay for the CP with so many no change fee options, but this makes the decision easier for sure.
