- Do I use them up on routes where I might be happy in PY or Y, worried that they get devalued under whatever new rules come in to effect?
Personally I am leaning towards scenario 1 until I get more clarity.
I don't see much of a reason to change the eUpgrade program per se.
If your upgrade goes to the gate, the marginal cost of providing you the upgrade is so close to zero that they wouldn't care.
If it clears before the gate, they have all kinds of levers to pull to change that. Like R space.
