Interesting, in checking inventory I notice that even in the Fall several months in advance EasyPass availability to Europe is very limited in BOTH coach and BF. I suspect, CO tries to sell the seat, and when they realize they won't sell all the seats they dump some inventory in at the EasyPass level in both coach and BF.
Interestingly, I got a strange award to Milan last month. It was outbound from IAD on NW/KLM to Milan Linate (LIN) at the Rulebuster level (Northwest had it at the standard level but I don't have enough miles on them) but back on Continental from Malpensa on a EasyPass. Total outlay for me was 100K miles.

Then I called CO to book it as I wanted to use his miles and was told by two agents that the BF std reward is only available GT 30 days out for platinums otherwise its easypass fro non-elites, gold and silver. IF you want a std BF 100k reward and not a platinum you can only book within the famous HOKEY 30 day window.
