Has anyone found *ANY* saver award space 
n UA (or any other carrier) to ANC? I'm not seeing any. UA shows zero for all of August and I looked from ORD/SEA/IAH in addition to from EWR-land.
ETA -- found SFO-ANC on the way up but don't expect to find much if anything saver on the return. I still need to add segments to SFO But I b
ked an award as far as ANC! If I had any AS miles I'd book ANC-DUT ... but alas I have zero. Any chance US miles can be used for the ANC-DUT-ANC legs?

Or AS might not ever deal with US-as-US and just wait for the merger to fully complete and deal with the new, merged entity.

wow, only one saver available on 9/2 mid-day flight already. you guys are intense!
subscribing, but unlikely to be able to make it to DUT. maybe to ANC for the weekend though. very interested in the fishing expedition option on 9/7.

Good question. (Grand Aleutian hotel rates) Haven't given them a call yet- but with award space on the AS/KS wetlease disappearing so quickly, we wanted to secure flights first.

No, I took the 2 award seats on #3296 on 9/2 at 3:45 as I'm going to try to get my +1 to go along. Know that it's a late arrival - but worth the shot, and I did set a EF alert for earlier avails.

DENALI VOTE: also for what its worth, my vote would be to do the Denali/Talkeetna excursion for pre-gaming, even if it is perhaps repetitive... Have not been there in a while and then only briefly. Think Talkeetna could be a good (ahem) recreational stop for food and drink.

Id be curious of there is a way to hit the Back Country lodge and then meet up with the group for the ride out of the park? ON second thought had no idea it was $500 a night (per person)

Ah cool. Not sure how late it lasts- but hope for an early arrival for you.
Still one seat left on the 2nd at saver levels...

Hope an FTer got that first flight...

I just grabbed the 4:15PM. all 3 were available about 7:30am Eastern. now per EF none on the 1:30. 1 left at 4:15pm and 2 left on 7:30PM
*Edit* just checked again and its down to 1 seat left on the 7:30PM. Hopefully someone in our group grabs it soon.
I checked the 9/3 flights and its down to 1 on the 1:30 so these go really fast.
