Air Canada shows accurate space, and as I mentioned before, I was able to book an ET flight that showed up on LifeMiles but was unavailable on EF or United. If wanting to book ET currently, I would use air Canada to search as it has the best search engine and doesn't require someone to login to search space.
Were you able to get UA to book the award flights, even though they did not show up on the UA award search? I am asking as that is normally not something UA reps are willing to do.
