venk--Do you know something or are you just speculating? If its speculation, I'm not sure it's very useful.
While it is true that the SWU is not a published benefit and could be eliminated, that would be a MAJOR devaluation in the program (a huge step above what they pulled this year). I'd argue that while the average 1K might not understand the whole fare basis thing, even the least knowledgeable 1Ks that I know understand the power of an SWU and would pull the plug on their UA loyalty if these were eliminated.
