Chances of an Aloha F award via Mileage Plus?

I'm not having much luck booking what I want to Hawaii (2 F Award seats) on UA metal with Mileage Plus for September..

Does Mileage Plus have access to Aloha F award seats from Oakland and/or Las Vegas?

If so, how many F seats does Aloha have on their 737's? (Seat Guru has no maps for Aloha) If there are only 2 rows like UA metal 737, then I expect that they don't give up to many to UA...

Aloha's website says seats are capacity controlled. You have to call. Looks like they charge a 5K mileage premium for UAL miles as well (40K coach/65K first)

Yes. Have twice-booked last year and the year before two saver F seats OAK-HNL and OAK-KOA .

12, irrc. MUCH nicer F seats than UA's domestic first to Hawaii. Much better meals that UA F to Hawaii. Get the bulkhead. Loads of legroom.

And unless they've raised the "price," saver F awards were 60K per seat.

There was a thread in the last several months about this with some informative stuff. Of course now that the new software in its wisdom won't let you search on 2 or 3 or 4 letter terms, you can't do a search on OAK or AQ...
