Howdy,
I searched in the archives, and couldn't find something specifically about this. Basically, last night, I missed out on a saver business class ticket leaving on friday for JFK-SFO and coming back on monday. Today, my only options for saver business are to leave on Saturday.
Now, I called united, but got the ICC

who kept insisting they look for coach saver awards, and completely couldnt' tell me anything about a waitlist. So I ask the gurus here - two questions:
- Looking at .bomb, for flight 17 on friday, C seems fairly wide-open, but there are currently no available C awards. Is there a possibility that saver C awards will open up on that flight as the date approaches?
- Assuming there's a possibility, can I book a saver award ticket for saturday morning and waitlist for a saver C award on Friday afternoon/evening?
Thanks for the help!
