I do realise there are probably not many about, or at least haven't been advertised yet, but is there any easier way of finding reward flights than putting individual dates in all the time? I go on every day to look for a return flight from Miami (UC) for any date mid to late October 2011, and have to change date each time and wait and wait, to be told none available, so go back and change dates again. It would be so much easier to have a calendar of available dates(if there are any) Am I missing anything? I had no problem whatsoever booking them last year for this.

I have been doing the same. The problem is, there are outbound flights, but no returns, so searching for a roundtrip is resulting in the no flights message.

The best way I have found is to look just as a one way flight, doing each leg separately, and start with just 1 pax, and go back to maybe June/July time - you should then get the calendar with available dates and you can just move forward to the current month. Then once you see where there are some rewawrds, up the number to however many pax you need.

I think currently you are going to struggle for MIA, there are few single returns available towards the end of October, but I have been looking for any dates Sept/Oct and never found one flight with 2 G's coming back, and no flight at all with any PE rewards on.

I have ended up booking an outbound UC for 2 pax to MIA but our return flight from NYC (an internal is about £70) because this was our only option.

Thank you. Must be a busier year than this one then! We had empty seats coming back this year.

We only want the return as we are cruising over :) I know not to bother looking for MCO flights!! Perhaps getting up to NY would be an option, though we will have a lot of baggage :0 !!
