SaverPass reward
Hi there,
I am a BD*G member as well as CO(*S) member.
I wand to purchase a CO reward flight using my BD points (in 27 Oct).
I believe that BD members can only purchase SaverPass award and not EasyPass, am I correct?
When does CO release SaverPass economy seats for the TLV-EWR-LAS route (I will be flying at July)?
THX in advance.

Unlike some other airlines, Continental does not have a set schedule for release of reward seats.
I'm not sure if this will change with the *A alliance, but atm there is not a way to confidently predict the coming availability of Saverpass rewards.
I'll leave smarter people to answer your other questions.

If you are searching on co.com for reward seats make sure that you are not logged in to your account. As a CO Silver you will see additional coach reward seats that are not available using your BD miles.
Otherwise the above answer is pretty much complete. There is no way to know when the seats will show up. You have to keep checking to find them. And the TLV-EWR route is notoriously hard for reward seats up front.
Good Luck!

On the same note. If I am gold, as I will be next month, is there any chance to get upgraded on a flight to/from Europe, or Hawaii, or the Caribbean, or Puerto Rico?

I think you meant, "If you are searching on co.com for reward seats make sure that you ARE logged in to your account"

CO Silvers have access to reward inventory that general members don't, and the OP wouldn't be able to access this inventory if using BD miles to purchase the tickets.
If the OP is not logged into their CO account, the reward availibility shown will match what will be available using the BD miles.

Slightly OT - I'm SE this yr and will also be next yr. I won't have sufficient miles until end next yr for a TATL reward flight so will be booking one for 2011...will this reward inventory still be available for booking if I book in 2010 for 2011? Hope my question makes sense!
