$50 for cancellations - there are reports of this being the fee even if you 'miss' the flight.

Is the refund of miles instant? Just in case something better opens up and I can rebook that flight immediately

It is instant, taxes may take a while.

And sometimes their phone authorization (to pay the fees in order to have miles refunded) never works...

I had to wait a month once before I tried again...

it will definitely be cheaper than buying a full fare j or f ticket. but you dont get the miles and would be difficult to change or cancel. i can get a F ticket from Sin to Lax for around 4k USD on lifemiles but it will easily cost more than 10k if I choose to buy it from the carrier

Is there anyone here making a big purchase before promo ends. I am not.

I am fully with WolfvanWeen - I will let them suffer $$$ -> blow their revenue budget.
Waiting for better deal next time.
