Bravo!
I've recently had the same luck even trying to book from GRR to RST in the dead of winter nowhere near a holiday. What the heck is up with that!
In fact, the only way I was able to use miles of late came as a result of the airline booking my wife and I departing on separate days, on the same flight, to HNL by mistake! The suddenly found a couple of first class seats for us.
Amazing anymore...

I didn't see a link to http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/miles...rehensive.html in the compilation. If I'm right that it's not there, consider this a suggestion that it be added.
