Amazing TAM First Award "O" Inventory

Tons of availability in TAM F

Just changed my flights for World Cup. Recently finding any flight close to the dates I needed were impossible. Just finished booking saver F available on the exact the dates I needed.

This is probably as good as it gets folks.

Thanks Lucky (One Mile at a Time)

Thanks for the heads up! So tempting . . . but can't justify a third major award trip this year.

Do you thnk the new *A award chart might have something to do with it?

Also, maybe with the new chart, they might have reduced some of the *net blocking.

US -> Deep South America didn't change that much. F changed from 62.5k to 70k each way IIRC.

Saw a report yesterday that someone was having difficulty booking this JJ O space on UA it does not show up online, and phone agents can't sell it. See discussion at http://milepoint.com/forums/threads/...-on-tam.80860/ .

Strange. I had no problem. I was talking to Hawaii though and the agent was excellent.

Taking a long weekend trip to GRU later this year thanks to this. Had absolutely no problem booking SFO-JFK-GRU roundtrip over the phone. Looking forward to it - thanks for sharing!

TAMs been showing some amazing availability - but has anyone gotten it to book, in ANY class recently? specifically, i've been trying to book a bunch of different dates that show up for February of next year and i haven't been able to do it either online - or on the phone when it errors out.

is this just phantom space??
