It’s a short flight (and I’ve already got 7B on an E175) so not worth the PlusPoints if more required but if able to include on the same PlusPoints request would obviously take it
If you had made the request all at once, then it would have been 30 PlusPoints total.

By making the request piecemeal, it’d be 30+20=50 PlusPoints.
