I say this because, it's probably the number one most talked about issue we have with Delta. Just do a quick search for "award calendar" and I'm sure you'll find TONS of posts about it. . . . and . . . .
Noted and granted....I probably should have searched. I've taken a few years off from travel and just now trying to book an award trip again.

Actually, I'm only searching by price, so by default the saver awards come up first (when they are there). So the "good" results show 60k to Europe as the first options after I click a saver outbound. On other dates, I click a saver outbound and the first options are 77500 outbound. Um, that's not a saver...
