Finding award availability in Business Class can be hard enough if you’re just looking for 1 or 2 seats. Trying to redeem points to book an entire family of four (or more) on an overseas holiday in a premium aircraft cabin can be infinitely harder. But with the right knowledge, planning and flexibility, it’s not impossible.

On Episode 81 of the AFF on Air podcast, award travel consultant Peter Fryar from Frequent Flyer Solutions joins Matt to share his tips for families looking for award availability. As well as plenty of experience helping Award Flight Assist clients, Peter has successfully redeemed points on many Business Class trips for his own family of four.

Also in this episode, there are two new airline status matches available with a SkyTeam and a Oneworld airline that may be of interest.
