Oh wow, I did not catch the details. Thanks for pointing it out. I tend to agree with anaggie that it may work out for the people who can nail down their trips 6 to 9 months in advance. Unfortunately, the disappearance of the biggest advantage that you can redeem as close as 14days before travel and save you big bucks from purchase a ticket out of pocket, essentially takes away the benefit of using this program for many others.
