MAXIMILER: Our column from ~OneTravel.com's~ own Frugalist, Bob Jones, features up-to the-minute tips and deals that maximize your air miles and save you travel cash. Read on for this week's "Mr. Maximiler" tip! Blackout dates a thing of the past? A few weeks back, Northwest eliminated black out dates for award travel. Of course they raised the number of miles required for award travel because they believed travelers found it difficult to understand the nuances of peak and off peak awards. Puleeeeeez! Anyhow, not long after the NWA announcement, their partners came on board followed by United, American, Delta and others. So, are you going to be able to save some cash and book normally expensive holiday trips using miles? I doubt it! Here's why. All frequent flyer seats are released on a "not to interfere with revenue" basis. Airlines know historically what seats they will sell and which they will not. The ones they do not sell are released to awards. Since the airlines sell virtually every seat on December 23rd and 24th, along with seats on the 26th through the 29th, don't expect to find any seats available...at least not now. The same holds true for the period around the 4th of July. Put simply, award seats are allotted to days and flights the airlines believe they can not fill with revenue passengers. So while there are no black out dates per se, they really do exist since seats will not be available on peak travel dates! But wait, there is hope! Yield Management, the practice of pricing and re-pricing, seats every few seconds to get maximum revenue, is also working for the frequent flyer with miles to spend. Recently, it has been possible to redeem miles at the last minute as airlines release seats that remain unsold. While this method is not for the faint of heart, you can get seats to good destinations. Flexibility in travel dates is important and creativity in routing may also be necessary as getting from A to B may require a visit of C and D along the way. Remember, too, that your best chances are with carriers with multiple partners like Alaska Airlines. Using an Alaska award, you can get from Houston to Seattle on Continental, American, or Northwest. A simple form on their site https://mileageplan.alaskaair.com/ssl/partner/PartnerForm.asp will get you started and, they will check all their partners for you. At Northwest, you can book awards online and their system checks partners automatically. Visit https://www.nwa.com/cgi-bin/atrredir.cgi for more information. Patience can pay!
