If there is a saverpass airfare 17,500 one each way right now on continental.com, how long can I bank on it being there? I normally would never consider buying airfare 6 months in advance, but I usually don't get any options for saverpass whenever I am booking tickets.
Re: Continental miles pros, come in!
In my experience it's first come, first serve. DH is the real Continental pro and may offer more insight, but when I see those I book them when I can. It's possible to find them closer to travel, but that depends on how many non-revenue seats they have set aside for each flight combined with how many other reward travelers want to fly. It seems they are fewer and farther beween these days.
Hope that helps!
