Hello all,

This is my first post on the Emirates forum. I plan on booking a Christmas/New Year vacation for 2010 and I want to take my wife back to the Maldives. Last year, we flew all the way from JFK-FRA-SIN-MLE on SQ and this year we want to go to faster route from JFK-DXB-MLE. We booked approximately 1 year in advance on SQ J awards. I was wondering how the availability is in Premium classes on Emirates. I would book 330 days out or whatever the max is with EK. I am hopeful of flying the A380 out of JFK in J or F for 2 seats. How do you think my chance are? Do they open many seats in advance or release them closer to the departure date? Thanks for your help.
