How much luck do you guys have getting reward seats (C/F) on LY?

CO is pretty difficult (*slightly* better when plat, which you will easily be with your travel pattern) they used to have a thing where you could get an unrestricted inventory ticket for the standard rate, but no more

Dream - you're converting at the 70:1 rate with amex points? doesn't that end up costing like 280k MR points for a free ticket?!

I was in 77A on LY Be'er Sheva. Plenty of leg room but the seats don't recline to anything close to fully flat.

LY's Yarden wines are better than the crap that CO serves... even the sparkling wine is better than the cheaper champagne CO has now...
