I love staying on top of new airline routes and aircraft changes, in part because I find new routes to be exciting, but mostly because they usually translate into a lot of award space. Typically once routes are loaded into the schedule, there's some amount of award space allocated as well.
For example, in terms of aircraft changes, Japan Airlines recently announced that their San Francisco to Tokyo Haneda route would go from being operated by a 787 to being operated by a 777-300ER. This was hugely exciting news, given that they opened up two first class award seats on every single flight, even over peak travel dates. And it was good news even for passengers in business class, since the 787 features their old business class product, while their 777-300ER features their new business class product.

Not only is Alaska Airlines offering up to a 40% bonus on the purchase of Mileage Plan miles through October 14, 2014, but they're also offering an award sale for economy travel at the moment.
The promotion is valid for economy class travel on Alaska in select markets -- admittedly that's not the most aspirational use of Alaska miles compared to Cathay Pacific or Emirates first class -- but it can represent an outstanding value.
To take advantage of this sale, you must book a ticket for travel between August 30 and October 31, 2014.
