Easter 2010

Easter 2010 is the long weekend of 2-5 April.

Now ... I think we are agreed (aren't we?) that a reward flight needs to be taken with 12 months of the original ticketing date.

We are also agreed that most awards can only be booked only 330 days out?

So, on this basis, if I want to book an F award at the current reduced redemption rates for Easter 2010, I need to:

a) book it before 1 May 2009 to get the 200% F price and avoid the LH 10k surcharge

b) book it for a travel date no later than March 2010 because of the 330 day rule

c) pay the £20 change fee at some point in mid May 2009 to get flights that cover the 2-5 April weekend, with an acknowledgement that if I can't get seats for Easter then I must take the outbound before 1 May 2010

Anyone spot any problems here?
