Web award booking issue near end of month.

[markis10]

Dont know if it was just me but anyone notice that towards the end of the month the selectable dates for award bookings get quirky, for instance the only option I am seeing for this month is the 30th?

Seems to be only when it's ex SIN?

There have in the past been some restrictions beyond the generic 24 hours on how soon before a booking can be made depending on the "purchasing" location.

Maybe it to do with the TA they use there.

I put in CPH and it won't let me select anything before May 4.

All to do with originating in Singapore, and not the end of the month (see Help Frequent Flyer | Qantas)

Throw in the mix that I can select the 29th when the results are displayed, which is inconsistent with the above.

The help page may be out of date, but the point is that it is the point of origin that is affecting your results, and not the end of month thing.

I have only noticed it near the end of the month, which could be a coincidence, will have to check in a few days.
