Hmm - any date I try just specifies no flights. Is it a status thing?

No.

Are you logged in?

Plus, you’re best using the website. The app won’t show First but the multi-city search on the website is your friend.

Try multi-city page on the website.

I found the website is cooked. Can do three searches and get different results. Multi shows one result. Normal website search another. Then normal website search and choose flexible with dates gives another result.

I have seen the calendar in multi show results like above. Click a date, and the page refreshes and unticks everything but Economy. I clicking the same date then sometimes loads the flight options or a continuous loop of unticked classes.

Not sure if these are phantom offerings or it’s something else going on.

Either way, all 3 search options should show the same result no matter what platform you are using.

Edit: not sure why it shows up at $357, but searching again its $1250 co payment.

Fixed it for you @elanshin

Although i think the point was that there does exist a flight. And whilst there are way more flights available on EK, flights do exist on QF which means something else is in play here too.

Hello everyone,

I've read from around page 18 or so. I see lots of mentions that there is availability from 'now' (when the posts were written in Aug/Sept) until March 2026. I've been looking for flights from AUS to Europe in December in J or F but only ever saw availability up until end of Nov.

Just wondering if I have missed it or they were never released? I do know that's peak period so maybe it will never release? I remember tracking it earlier in the year and it was releasing new seats every day like clockwork then stopped so I don't think I have missed it but who knows... We do currently have seats booked out of Asia but obviously would prefer to change it from AUS if possible

Thanks!

Yeah, from memory the Christmas / New Year period was scant for a a while now - either got gobbled up months ago or may have been blackout dates involved?

MEL to DXB now has F for a large part of March available.

A few Js for March as well

Interesting

Also I've noticed a few people have gotten alerts and pings in various groups for flights to DXB from Australia for mid next year.

So award flights in J/F do exist as I've also found. It just either not released in the same way or everyone has snapped up QFs inventory.

Yeah seems the release process has changed from pretty much a daily drop to "something else"

Nothing and no updates for Perth to Dubai though.

Nothing Dubai to Maldives either

So at least on MEL-DXB it seems they are releasing seats almost daily now, about 180 days in advance. 1 x F and 2 x J up to 10th April at the moment, so would expect 11th of April to show up tonight. Being Easter/School hols there are gaps, but seems to be daily releases.

But other routes nothing

Well, that’s progress and contrary to other previous comments.

MEL-DXB as at 14 Oct 25 for 1 seat in F




See what happens in the next week or so - I'll try to update daily

It's only on MEL-DXB - SYD, BNE and PER no changes that I can see
