I recently wanted to use my Etihad Guest miles to book a Garuda flight within Asia.
I went onto the Delta website and found O class (Business award) availability on a suitable Garuda flight. But when I called Etihad to book, the lady on the phone couldn't see any availability on that flight -...
An interesting read, and I would probably agree with this. It has been even harder than usual to use points lately as people have accumulated more points during the pandemic and then all want to use them at the same time - just as capacity is reduced...

According to OMAAT, you can apparently now redeem Aeroplan points to book long-haul J awards on SQ. This is something that is normally only possible using KrisFlyer miles or Velocity points.
I just had a look and I can't actually see any long-haul SQ J awards available through Aeroplan. There...
Hi all,
I'm looking to use points to travel DPS-MEL later next year.
If I search for DPS-MEL Reward availability on my dates, the only award flights I am offered is a very roundabout trip via KUL, or DPS-SYD-CFS(!!!)-MEL... however if I search award availability for DPS-SYD the routing I am...
Hi All,
Apologies if this is readily available elsewhere ....
I'm seeing heaps of EK J award available from LHR/LGW to DXB in October next year on EF (O fares) but nothing on QFF, Does anyone know which award fare type EK makes avalable to QFF and - heaven help me - if I called QFF whether...
HI All wondering if anyone can help this Expert flyer showing Award seat availability on both Qatar & Emirates but when I check on Qantas & Virgin there are no Business seats available? - how can we find out if there are Award seats available- I hold Virgin Platinum Status & Qantas Gold Status...

Just checked on the AA website, seems there is virtually at least 1 seat in First Class every day of the month of February and March next...
Qantas has just released a bunch of new PE and J award availability on routes to/from the United States, for travel over the coming months. I even spotted a few seats in the week before Christmas. Get in quick! ;)
AA appears to be releasing very, very few domestic award seats when flights are loaded - for booking by FF partners.
For example - August/September next year - I can't find a single award seat in any class between LAX and SFO.
In the past, AA released heaps of seats on this route.
I hope this...
Qatar Airways is upgrading its PER-DOH route to an A380 from December.

You might also be able to get...

I have been trying almost daily to see if I can book Sydney to Dubai with Emirates anytime next year (Jan through to April) and it keeps coming back saying zero availability for any class of seats. I have tried doing a direct search and utilising the multi city search.
It's like Qantas/Emirates...
My husband and I are looking to fly CBR-DPS in Aug 2022 (or if that doesn't work, Mar 23). We go there not infrequently, and usually manage to get a classic reward ticket for business class - always on Jetstar. Looking at both August and March, there are no business class award flights...
