What is an advanced category award space ticket?
Airlines use various pricing models based on when and how a ticket is purchased. For example, last minute fares, Internet fares, and 14-day fares are just a few fare categories used by the airlines. Based on Program guidelines, the Program utilizes space in the 21 or 30 day advance fare category for most Awards. If an advance fare seat is required for an Award, a seat must be available in this category in order to qualify for the Award.
