The real question is...why would you pay for a whole months subscription when you know that you arent going to use it?

Over time your characters get "Rested". So in a way you do get Double XP.

Yea Small amount. Its more or less for people who want to try to catch up with their friends. I think you get Double XP Reguardless of where you are. I left my mage outside of Darkshire in Duskwood, Had a lower amount of Rested XP compared to my Pally who was in Stormwind but 200% none the less. And TBH I dont think that was a ram problem, I think It just crashed you out cuz your time was up. Dunno why It gave you a ram error. If a ram error comes up again should look into it.

At level 37 you don't need much rested xp... in a week you can gain 4-5 levels or more definitely. I would not activate your account till you comeback. You only get rested XP if you are in a city when you last logged off and you get more rested XP if your inside an inn inside the city. But i don't know if Blizzard lets you get rested xp if your inside the inn in the city when your account is frozen, i hope it does do. So i would wait, but if you got money to burn go ahead and do it.

Rested xp= Bonus Xp, Bonus xpis used per creep kill not over a time, so it won't go away if you go afk outside. Your rested xp will get used to a limit amount of kills, depending how long your rested. It's only worth getting rested xp if you have a 2nd character your working on. Like you make a new one and your high level character rests at Inn while you get the other one up or goof off :).

But it takes like a long time to get enough rested xp so you can gain 2 levels of extra xp... usually the rested xp is used by the the first level or 1 1/2 levels. Blizzard used to give you extra game time when their servers where down or rested xp, not anymore :(. I might not be 100% right but this is from experience from when i used to play WoW. GL enjoy your trip.

thx, yes i know i can get 4-5 levels in a week, but with double exp you can do it WAY faster. wait so if your in an inn in major city you get more rested exp, then within a regular inn?
