Does Continental show all availability for mile tickets?
« on: June 26, 2011, 10:34:55 AM »
When I search Continental for tickets with miles are they showing me all available flights?   I just checked some days on Air Canada and they showed me some Lufthansa flights that I didn't see on Continental ... Where's the best place to search for availability? Is it better to just call Continental to have them search for what's available? Will they see flights that I don't?
