I wonder what happens come April 2nd. Are they going to jack up the "base rate" for awards or a lot of people will re-ticket to get discounts, if availability is still there?
Essentially, if you are a regular UA flyer, you are going to pay at least US$150 for the card (or charge $10,000 to the Gateway Card) to get decent deals. I wonder what they are going to come up with next...
