The ticket you just bought now has a 6 month (if BASIC) or 1 year (if CHOICE or better), It will be from the date you bought it. So if you bought it on 9/26/2025, you must FLY before 3/26/2026 (BASIC) or 9/26/2026 (CHOICE or better).
the Basic has a must FLY stipulation? I was thinking just had to buy a ticket within 6 months but have to take the flight as well?
