Also do more seats get released nearer the time, and if so is there a time window that they normally use. I.e if seats haven't been released by a certain date, they won't be? Do avios.com have different availability to the ba website?
Any other tips regarding getting a reward seat would be much appreciated? Or if you want to simply point me at another thread, then that's ok too.
Thanks in advance,

Award seats may open up closer to the time if they have unsold seats - however to popular places during school holidays it is unlikely
Avios.com does show different availablity to BA.com (but you cant use your companion voucher on Avios.com).
For popular places you really need to be booking at 330 days out - otherwise you need to be flexible with dates and locations.
