Also tons of BLI-LAS available for 7,500 (lowest award level for 900+ miles distance). What gives? According to their chart, they should be releasing some at 5,000, shouldn't they?
It's weird....I've noticed how random the 5,000 awards are...for instance, it's hard to find PDX-EUG or PDX-RDM flights but I've been able to find quite a few PDX-FCA (via SEA even) and PDX-FAT (via SEA) flights for 5,000 miles.
