So I think the main attraction of this sale is expanded award availability lol, not the puny 2.5k ow savings.

This was previously 12.5K each way for many August flights EWR-OGG! I posted on master thread back in Feb. I snagged 7 via TK 7.5k (on first call).  Was that a glitch or dynamic can go lower than standard fare?

Dunno, but that should have been its own thread.

Regardless, deals should be in their own post where more people will see.
IIRC it was only valid one-way. And I was on vacation that week.

Take what you can get. Any island is perfect for 4 days, any time.
