Great tool, but by no means comprehensive. With all the partners NW has these days, this only checks a few of them (and not all the combinations thereof). Anyone who tries finding a trip using WPAA or the award availability search at nwa.com is only searching a SMALL FRACTION of their options.
So what is the best method to search for award availability if those methods are Not very extensive? I would like to know myself because I have been searching for availability also and im not having very much luck (standard awards are also pretty much nonexistant
