DL and AA both have awards that waive capacity restrictions and blackout dates. They are double the capacity controlled mileage awards. AA calls them AAnytime Awards. Also, I believe Southwest Airlines awards are not capacity controlled at their normal award levels.

Yes, I realise that a number of programs allow you to use extra miles to waive the capacity controls, but what I'm really looking for is a program that has the capacity control waiver "built-in," like with CP's Executive Platinum. If there's a seat left on the plane, CP will let you have it.

WN is the only one I know about, but perhaps Airtran and some of the other no-frills airlines also. I think it's safe to say that none of the US airlines have this without using more miles.

TWA has no capacity controlls both dom. & intl. for their PLAT> level.This is if you are using an award from your acct for miles or even if its from a promo that allows free travel.But then you have to fly TWA thats the down-side.
