Reviewing the availability for several dates in late August for the ICN-HKT route in both economy and business class; there are some dates available through Aeroplan, but a greater number of dates available through the ANA award site. So I do not think, at least on this route, that this is the case of seasonal blackouts.
PS-as per the UA thread, is there some way to find out "fare rules" for Aeroplan bookings?
