Release of unsold premium seats.
I have Google searched this question: When does Cathay release unsold premium cabin space to be used as award travel. Answers I have received are about 7 days to as little as 24 hours before flight time. Has anyone been doing last minute searching for First and how did that searching work out for you? I have been searching CX for seats but obviously the last 2 seats on 77W/77H are going to be held for possible sale. Although AA shows, on our choice of flight, 4 seats for sale. BA shows no award seats. Should I keep trying? Or should I wait until that last week prior to departure?
