I'm obviously missing something here. Care to elaborate.
US Airways Award Routing Rules? - One Mile at a Time

Thanks for that exceladdict. I fear this will dry up once the merger is complete.
Struggling to use your Frequent Flyer Points?
Frequent Flyer Concierge takes the hard work out of finding award availability and redeeming your frequent flyer or credit card points for flights.
Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, the Frequent Flyer Concierge team at Frequent Flyer Concierge will help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.
any idea how long it takes for purchased miles to reflect in the account? purchased 2 days ago and still nothing.
Im inclined to agree, no reason for it to stay more generous. However I doubt it will be worse than the current AA chart, they've been quite careful not to upset frequent flyers in the process so far. Here's to hoping.
The main thing I would not be optimistic about are the rules around redemptions reflecting more DM's rules, e.g. en route stopovers or loose rules around routing. If it happens anyway, that'll be a bonus, not a given.
According to the DM agent I just spoke to (in response to me asking for a route via DOH) claimed that "The whole travel industry" considers North/South America, Europe/Africa, and Asia/Australia Zones 1, 2 and 3 respectively. You're not allowed to cross the one in the middle to get to the other.
Perhaps the tightening has indeed begun.

She is right about the zones, but I never thought about that for routing rules.
It's a case of HUACA.

Mine posted in about 5 minutes. May have something to do with the promotion ending.
Thanks MEL. Guess I'll just wait to see if it comes through. It is a new account so could be that.
