You're right. But the July flights with less than 1 week before departure are dead though. Yes, I know how to work around that problem if I really needed to change the early July flights. :)

WN funny money was pretty crap before tied to a passenger and a short expiration date. But you get RR points/flight credits if flown. If you forget to cancel, you lose the funds.
