Air New Zealand Air Points - Premium cabin award travel AKL-PER

I am trying to use some UA miles to book AKL-PER-AKL in November.

At present it's only showing coach availability. Should I be calling back every day to check to see if there is business/first award availability, or is it likely that there is never anything suitable on this route?

Also, is there a better way to check premium cabin availability apart from calling UA? A website somewhere maybe?

Thank you.

No first on NZ, only business and economy (and premium economy on 747/777 routes of which PER is not one).

Sign up to ANA diamond club (free) and use award reservation tool (no need to have the miles to lookup). Just remember that availability for ANA awards may be better than for UA awards.

What dates are you looking at, and for how many people? Fri through Mon are peak business demand dates.

Just 1 PAX, Nov 14-21.

According to ANA, there is business award AKL-PER on 16th Nov, and PER-AKL on 22nd Nov. Is that good enough?

Unfortunately not. Thank you for looking it up, though, and also for the info. I joined ANA Diamond club myself and checked my dates, but unfortunately my itin is pretty date-specific.

Thank you so much for your help though!
