Yes, I know. But over the phone, IB CSRs can access dates beyond the T-330. For example, when I called, IB rep offered award flight 8 days after the date I wanted, but not on the date I wanted which BA.com showed had availability.
Does anyone know if BA availability for IB awards holds up through booking? If so, lack of same availabilty on IB would suggest IB blocking its own flights in favor of BA awards with fat fees. If not, then normally reliable BA award search engine may be broken.
