IM4TRAVEL -- just curious -- what type of reward ticket to Europe did you book --
Did you use a HoKeY fare or all miles?
If not a HoKeY I am interested in what you think of the HoKeY gamble -- the 30 day rule and your thoughts on the 72hr rule ---

background -- I fly CO basically West Coast - Hawaii and Europe --- CO Platinum ---
but I do find the International rules have really put a damper on flying CO --- especially when BF seats are not released - they fly empty or with non-revs (and yet a HoKeY fare was paid)---and in one of my
cases -- purchased a HoKeY and then was informed that the "waitlist" was full and could not be listed --
