The underlying Saver X fare still earns 30% EQM no minimum. Not sure how many takers there will be. I guess if you have already reached the Elite Tier you hoped for and you don't value flexibility or the lost RDM, it is a savings. Remember, an MVP in Main will always be upgraded before a 100K in Saver.
You can get 50% of the fare back plus all the fees & taxes if you cancel 14 days or more from departure. Within 14 days, all gone!
