For those of us who put in the leg work to strategize and plan our award redemptions, those couple days aren't a major issue.
What kind of legwork or strategy do you use to plan your award redemptions ? The advantage of booking way in advance like 360 days out is that there is a level of certainty about the availability of award seats
