UR portal isn't an award ticket.

  I called the travel center, and they wouldn't allow me to book a flight on points because it's the same day.

That's true with everything in this game.

DP's aren't that someone got told they *couldn't* do something, that's why we have HUCA and DROPR

DP's are when you can do something.

I won't disagree that it may have changed but I doubt it.
