Yes, well the Skywards people aren't going to say save your miles till later because we've blocked all inventory right now and won't open it up till much later. June is a peak period, so expect availability to be difficult, but keep looking for flights with D class availability, and the moment you have it, book the tickets and upgrade. I think change fees ex-US are quite high, so you don't want to get stuck with them.
