There is nothing lower than SaverPass Economy on Continental (25K
miles roundtrip in the lower 48, Canada and I think Alaska).

Actually, this is not accurate. They do have a 20K award for short
trips. But there is nothing lower than 25K between Halifax and Lubbock.

There used to be. That 25K is for each way on a RT. 50K total.

False. SaverPass is 12.5K each way on a RT, 25K total, and it's still
available. For example, see this screenshot that I took a couple of
minutes ago:

It clearly shows availability between YHZ and LBB for 12.5K miles
each way.

Not too
long ago, CO had a 12.5K each way for 25K RT. Since the prices went up, I
think they've eliminated it.

False. See the current OnePass award chart:

It's really true, but something is wrong here. I booked flights for my wife
and myself Thanksgiving week, and it cost me 50K each. 25K each way.
Second booking was for today. My wife arrived at AVP today and it was the
same. 25K each way. This was for IAH to AVP and return. My next flight is
booked IAH to AVP in 12/22 and return on 12/28. Also 25K each way. Two
months ago the 25K wasn't available and I had to spend 100K for my wife's RT
(50K each way)

Try it! Go to CO's site and book reward travel from IAH to AVP - leave on
12/22 and return on 12/28. I just checked it again, and it's 25K each way.

I clearly see what your link says, and I going to find out what's up. there
must be some small print somewhere. If not, I'm going to raise hell with
them. when I find out, I'll definitely let ya know.

Seriously, give it a try. You'll see 25K added when you select your return
flight.

VS - I have to apologize. Brain Fart! I read it wrong. Must be the old
age kicking in. I went back and read it again, and you're right. When I
booked, the cheaper flights were not available.

Read the left side of the big dark-yellow box. Blue means that
SaverPass First/BusinessFirst awards are available and, indeed,
nothing is available.

I still don't see a round trip for 25,000 miles per person. You showed
one way and didn't go to actual booking.

I recently booked round trip to Hawaii and found that what showed up
as one way low mileage wouldn't show up as round trip for low mileage.

Here is a screenshot of an actual, bookable OnePass award reservation
for 25,000 miles per person roundtrip between Halifax and Lubbock:

You can't see the bottom flight, but you can verify that DL6640 is
indeed a flight from BOS to YHZ.

Satisfied now?

It's amazing how stubborn some people are...

I wasn't being stubborn. I just wanted to you to verify your claim
which you have. A one way ticket wasn't the same as a round trip.

It is interesting that this would be a great redemption of miles.
Supposedly the average is 1 1/2 cents per point. This would be over 3
cents.
