EVA Waitlist on *A Redemption
Anyone has experience on when EVA might clear a waitlist for a *A redemption ticket?
I booked my parents on a J class *A redemption ticket using KF miles for departure mid Dec, more than 3 months out. One sector KIX-TPE is operated by EVA and my dad is waitlisted to be on the same flight as my mom. Am worried whether the waitlist will clear as Dec is a holiday season and how long should I wait before I explore other routings to book for KIX-TPE.
Thanks in advance!

I'm surprised if KF accepts to waitlist you for a partner award.
Anyway, I have no idea if/when BR clear the waitlist. They may not clear it for an partner award to KF if BR expects to be able to sell the seat as revenue.
I would look for a better and more safe option despite the inconvenience of not being able to travel on the same flight.
