First of all, apologies if this is in the wrong thread.
I have been meaning to jump on an award flight that was due to be released recently, given the 353 day release rule.
I have been keeping tabs of QR award flights being released on the Qantas Website and like clockwork each day new award flights are released in the afternoon EST.
All of a sudden since last week, this has stopped. No new QR award flights have been made available since then, the last date it seems is the 22nd of August.
Doing a bit of searching it seems that QR have just released new updated schedules for the 2017 winter, so it could that. Also, on the QR website, you cannot book any new flights regardless if they are awards or not from the 22nd, so it could be all perfectly normal.
Anyway, I though perhaps it may be the website but I rang Qantas and they see the same as me, no new flights on QR since the 22nd of August.
Is this relatively common? I could log in some day and see all the flights available or are QR sometimes hit and miss this way? There is a particular flight I want, I do have other backup plans, if I don't get this one and the last resort will be to fly BA but I want to avoid this as much as possible as BA cost lots of extra $$$$ in charges and well QR > BA.
