This has probably already been discussed but I'm seeing that Saver Awards are no longer determined based on whether there's saver availability, but that they're factoring in the 'market.'

For example, I'm looking to fly FLL-SEA connecting through ORD on Jan 19th. After logging in and accessing Premier Inventory, there's saver award availability on FLL-ORD (UA1290) and ORD-SEA (UA1641) but when I try FLL-SEA, the same flights don't show up as saver, only standard. Is this new?

Living in Seattle, where they're scaled back, this could be a huge hit if awards are going to be priced at standard levels. Too bad I kept flying w/ UA even after they checked out of SEA...

Thanks,
