I’m in a similar boat as you e6 and I’m not discouraging upgrading but I’ll sure miss the flexibility when I pull the trigger. Lots of things to ponder.

Totally agree. I have one homeschooled kid and a wife left at home and we travel 6-7 times a year and go on vacations of our choosing. I do that by blowing giant holes in my schedule and flying premium to pay for it all. Bought Disneyland annual passes this year and made awesome memories.

Not sure what we are doing next year, but I seem to vividly remember not being able to do these things when I was commuting to eternal weekend reserve. Upgrade will be tempting, but it can wait. I just wish someone would tell me when the next black swan event is coming so I can plan for it.
