Checking UA nonstop award inventory
Is there an efficient way to check for UA award inventory between LAX & EWR across a variety of dates?
This used to be possible on the old website, but this calendar view functionality is no longer present in the new website in the same way. Now, the new calendar view shows the days with connecting award inventory even when I am explicitly searching for nonstop only.
ANA used to have the by week function - no more.
Air Canada seems to not offer nonstop only award inventory searching.

Not to mention that UA opens close to zero saver award seats (economy or BF) on ps these days.
Doesn't show XN or IN. Those can only be searched on united.com.

Is there another discussion on this?
I am trying to identify the nonstop saver awards for EWR-YVR. If there are none then tell me there's none. My schedule is very flexible. I can go tomorrow, next week or next month but I want nonstop. Show me just the nonstop!
I check the nonstop only box and clear the 1 and 2 stop boxes and it automatically resets to all flights.

The old site was just as unreliable. I booked multiple awards on dates that the calendar claimed had nothing available.

I blogged about the issue several times and filled out the feedback form on this critical issue to no avail:

It's the most bizarre takeaway of functionality from the old CO site.
