What a cheap, garbage move. If they were worried about protecting domestic F, they should have carved that out, not turned all redemptions into mixed cabin ones at best.
They also haven't had left hand meet right hand with regards to the example shown, as those are clearly Y numbers (and old ones, at that).
Again, cheap and low, bad devaluation.
Right - all they would need to do is say and implement "exclusionist in US/CA not available in business/first class"
And interesting I have seen 30 day calendar I have seen shows random days of zero miles+taxes and when you select them the mileage shows up for the local business class redemption mileage and the calendar updates (still showing a random zero miles!)
jsloan do you have any insight into when this happened? I swear a few weeks ago (maybe longer, like I said I am retired - time is oddly hard to keep track of!) it clearly let me do it before I started trying to do my goofy multi stop trip!
