Ticketing for this flight was a nightmare ...and the agents (from reservations to check-in to president's club to gate) acted as if I was the first person to ever use OnePass miles to upgrade to BF. (With HoKeY and what-not, perhaps I am the first
) But for $600 r/t for a EWR-KOA flight in BF, I guess I shouldn't complain too much.

You're probably the first person they had ever seen who had ever played HoKeY and ACTUALLY WON! Of course they didn't know what they were doing. They're only used to dealing with the angry mobs who didn't get their HoKeY BF seat, while seats are filled with non-revs amd their buddies, or go out empty.
My husband and I are flying COS-IAH-HNL on a K fare (it was the lowest at the time) in November. I called yesterday to see how the prospects looked for clearing the waitlist (both Platinum). The agent I talked to checked the outbound and return and said that it looked EXTREMELY doubtful that we would clear. "Don't plan on it", she said, but "of course, if they should happen to release some seats before the 72 hour cutoff, you will be high on the list."
I immediately checked availability on ITN:
A9 F9 Z9 E0 both ways! It will probably stay that way until 48 hours before the flights.
