Thoughts on reward availability this weekend?

I'm thinking about taking a last minute flight out to LA for the Thanksgiving weekend. There are a couple good last minute Saver options available for WAS-LAX today and tomorrow, but only one early 1-stop return on Monday. I know MMMV, but any thoughts on the odds that a non-stop will open up by Monday?

Thanks.

You might be able to SDC that day too. What are the loads on the other flights in expert mode?

The GF would be very excited about a surprise trip to see her in LA. Not so excited for me to wing over to Maui for the weekend.

What about a surprise trip for you and her to Maui?

(FWIW, I read it wrong... thought you were in LA headed to WAS )
