Domestic Jet Biz Award Availability
I'm looking for a DEL-MAA J availability in Sep/Oct. Even though the there are 4-5 flights, there no single seat available for 2 months window.
Is it possible that all awards are booked or Jet is holding Domestic J as well?

AFAIK, business seat availability has always been a problem in Jet.. They usually hold it till the last date and unless folks are persistent in following up , this may not get converted.. But do try and get the tickets on W/L..

When I spoke with a agent he advised me that it was still on wait list. I had to ask him to check for redemption seats which were indeed open.
So I am really not sure how their wait list's work. They must be manually monitored?

i've noticed this a couple of times before as well....if there is no availability on their website then you should just call in....i don't think they open more seats for plats but they just have availability that they don't put online....if i remember correctly, this is the 3rd time i've managed to get a seat by calling when none were showing online....
