People always say that, but I have to be honest...ever since CO has been Unitiedfied, reward availability has been brutal.

As an example, I have been looking for a mileage flight to TLV (direct only). CO has nothing available for months...DL on the other hand has many days in the next 2 months where the LOW award is available.

In addition, the MED award is pretty much available all the time. On CO, to generate 100% availability you need to basically pay the equivalent of HIGH
