I have used STW 3 times this year and had my points refunded twice because UA changed their schedule and due to rerouting I was still in J, but the new times wouldn't work, so I was refunded. The 3rd time I flew as scheduled. FWIW - both time i was rescheduled PN was available, so I just used a regular PP upgrade.
