Same Day Confirmed Change Trick
Booked a last minute award ticket for today. Two outbound flights available - 1 at a good time and 1 at a bad time.
The good flight cost 2x the miles of the bad time. Checked expert flyer and good flight had Y availability.
Redeemed miles for bad flight and then immediately did a same day confirmed change to the good routing.
10K miles saved!
Hadn't seen anyone post that before, but I'm sure its been done by others.
