I'd save the GUC because, at this point, it is at best a value of $800, and at worst it gets you only into PS and is a value of less than $500. You have another year to be able to use it on a longer/more expensive itinerary to maximize its value.
Thanks! I completely agree! I am likely going to New Zealand or Cape Town in 2025 and can hold on to the GUCs for one of those trips
