Hi there! Noobie here with working points, but I have amassed quite a few.
I am heading back from New York to Adelaide with my girlfriend in September, and looking to use my Qantas points to book J class on the way back. I know that trying to get J seats on a QF Qantas Classic award is almost impossible, 'rare as hens teeth' is the phrase most commonly used. But If I look at flights scheduled in April - there is alot of availability on Emirates for J class (and first class). If I go to september, the emirates flights don't even appear.
I am just wondering:
a) do they release the emirates seats/flights alot closer to the date
or
b) am I missing something obvious?
thanks in advance everyone!
