A few years ago, phantom CX award availability was a real problem when looking to book CX award flights using QFF points.
This problem was then generally solved when CX changed booking systems.
Over the past six weeks or so however (since I have been looking at least), it would appear that the CX phantom has returned with vengeance!!
Upon an initial search, some scant J award availability is shown on QFF for routes to/from HKG (using flexible dates). However, when you try to select the actual dates where availability is indicated, no availability of any sort is found and an error is returned. Try again and, as expected, the same thing happens again. This is not limited to Australia-HKG flights either.
If actual J award availability was any good this would not be so much of an issue. However, as almost zero J award seats are available anywhere close to when I want to travel, it makes actual availability even harder to find...
