@CMG2020 Thanks so much for getting back me to with those details. I'm happy to clarify.
Offline Stations with Pandora Plus:
At this time, Pandora Plus listeners cannot add, delete or swap out which stations will be available for offline listening. In the meantime, if you're wanting to have other offline stations available to you, try listening to those other stations more (ones that are currently not on your Offline station list). Since we periodically refresh the stations that are available to you offline (based on your listening habits), we may surprise you with adding them to your list. Alternatively, you may consider upgrading to Pandora Premium which allows subscribers to download any station, playlist, album or song in their collection for offline listening.
These stations usually take up anywhere from 300 MB - 700MB depending on the types of stations you listen to. For example, a classical station may take up more space than a pop station.
Pandora will never use the last 500 MB of storage on your device. When Pandora detects that there is not enough storage on your device for all of your offline stations, we will download as many stations as we possibly can. Finally, downloading only happens on Wi-Fi unless you've opted-in to download over cellular connections.

Complimentary Premium Sessions:
Initiating a complimentary session of Premium won't allow you to listen to those stations for long after being downloaded. There's a natural tension between valuable ad space and the listening experience. Because of that, we're actively testing the length of these sessions to provide the best listening experience for everyone. As a result, the average length and availability of your complimentary session may fluctuate.
When your session ends, those offline stations are being removed as your account is reverting back to your Plus subscription. With Plus, we will automatically choose up to three of your most-listened-to stations along with Thumbprint Radio.
