It's very clear the OP is looking for award tickets. It's not at all obvious that the OP is using
the EF and UA award searches; that's not stated, and I assumed the opposite. You might be right, but the OP appears to be brand new to FT, and we have a range of people with a range of experiences who ask questions here - and what might be obvious to you, is not so obvious to people new to this game.
However, if the OP is using the EF award search tool, then I agree with the rest of the advice you gave.
