Well they haven't offered any 'pay for ug' at the moment. FWIW, discussed in another thread, tried to get them to advance me a SWU (of the 5 I will get), but they are saying they won't do that because you need to fly the 30 segments. I have 180k lp 20 segments. After this trip I'll have 200k and 24 segments. Doesn't seem high risk to advance something I will get (sure I could never fly again, but I'm a 15 year EXP, what are the odds of that?).
If they offered me ~ $300 Ug, that would be worth it but, like I said, I'm going to sleep the entire time so how much is a lie flat seat worth? Certainly not Points plus Cash.
And my 'interest' is more of the game we play: Try and maximize your personal benefit from AA at no cost to you.
