Since I have a plethera of miles in my CO account...I used all miles...booked them in April for travel in July and August respectively.
There is technically..no more Hokey....one can upgrade on any fare now...just be willing to cough up extra $$ to do it. Because I have no problem earning CO miles...I've always gone the completely free ticket route...I don't believe in paying for vacation.(unless it's ridiculously cheap and makes sense to pay). At my mileage/hotel point earning rates..(250 nights last year and 140K miles flown) I don't need to.
