On the topic of award flights, I've never booked an award that wasn't at a saver rate, so keep looking I guess?
Yes that one did show up but thought this funny as being in LAS I look to position to LAX for a deal...

I am in YVR now after flying back on KLM. Bought a YVR-AMS-YVR almost a year ago to position up north.

You just need to grab things as you see them if you are flexible.
I think the Award pricing nuts but considering the devaluations all airlines have had they see the need to charge more miles.
Have to hope the JN deals come back.
