Soulag, who has posted only 4 times on FT, asked a very legitimate question. JMN57 gave some very smart answers that I learned from.

Why were you rude, Fanjet? Of course there are "many millions of AAdvantage members looking for award availability at any given time." I'm sure Soulag, and everyone else on this talk board knows that.

The question Soulag asked is why availability is skewed without apparent explanation by holidays or time of year or week.

In any case, when someone with little FT experience poses a legitimate question about how to navigate the AA FF system, being rude and responding to the person as if they are an idiot should result in some self-reflection. There's no excuse for it.
