Johnny. Yes, I owe Premex a few beers plus some, as that is exactly what they did for me too. No need to ticket for 4 months, but held seats 15A/B upstairs. Great. I'll ost a thread here on this flight soon in case others wish to join in.
Rudi speaks of buying "grey market" D class UA seats out of Helvetica. Not sure where else they sell them. SWU even works on D it says.
My guess is on then rtw, seeing I still hold paper SWU that not all sectors will be pulled anyway, so won't upset me too much - even if they are. I'll work some voodoo mathematics on the poor desk clerks about 24 hour stopover, next best connections, and phases of the moon, and they will get a headache and let me go hopefully!
