Hmmm, so exactly what percentage is that?

Over time I'd say I found 2 out of 3 awards at roughly the time I wanted them, so that would be 66%, but there are times, for example trying to get two people to London last Christmas where there was zero coach sAAver awards for about 3 weeks. In the end they used AAnytime Business Awards. Does that qualify as "being successful" or not? Without knowing the questions in the survey it's hard to tell.

My guess is the survey would probably show radically different results if they checked both peak vacation & holiday times versus obscure dates in late January or erly November.
