When does the Fly Ahead offer on the app appear?

Sorry if this question has been asked already but I couldn't really find the answer to my question. I know that there is now a Fly Ahead offer on the app but what I can't work out is when it appears? Is it there after you've checked in or even before you've checked in? Is it offered at the very beginning of the day or only a certain time frame before your flight?

It should automatically appear at the beginning of the day of travel (12:01am from experience) regardless of whether you have checked in or not.

As above at 12.01 the day off - but I often won't see actual offers when clicking the link until later in the morning. Out of my last 4 trips, only one time was there ever actually an offer to fly ahead.

Any insight whether there’s Fly Ahead given the rolling strikes for security screeners at SYD?

Fly Ahead should be automatically available on the app if your ticket is eligible. Whether seats are available is a different question.

They may also turn on Fly Earlier to manage operations. You'll get a notification on the app if that happens.

Because of the strike, they're also allowing free ticket changes if you'd rather travel tomorrow, but you need to ring the call centre for that.
