Still this is the rare award space thread. Those of us who monitor this closely don't want to be alerted for every coach award seat to TLV.

SQ R on the other hand...

That was my intention... Last minute and hard to get. Many people use their miles for these purposes.
As you can see from my profile, I've been on here longer than you guys who commented negatively... I know what most of you are looking for. However, many people still use their points for this kind of stuff and would appreciate or know someone else who would appreciate it!

No. But as the title states- it is for "rare" which LY Y is not.

How about we try to keep the thread for flight availability posts, and if occasionally a post is for less rare space we don't comment on it unless there are repeat offenses to a degree that necessitates a response.

This thread serves the community best by being about flights only, and if someone takes advantage of it, a thank you. Let's try to keep discussion on the merits of other posts out of it (including my posts today!)

Last minute, high season is "rare" in my book. If Dan thinks otherwise,  I will refrain from further posts of this sort.

I vote for flyingace. Of course LY Y is not rear most of the times, but for summer travel when revenue tickets are expensive it is a good deal to get rid of useless matmid points.

Obviously everyone has different criteria for "good deals". I think this makes the grade, some people don't. If the consensus is not to post coach seats, so be it.
