Hi All, I'm trying to book a J award from SNN-BOS in May 2017 using Avios. I've been searching availability through United. There is no J availability (even standard awards) on this route for my dates or as it turns out for any dates after 14 Dec 2016. Prior to that date the award availability is wide open.

The same pattern holds true for SNN-JFK. My initial thought was that this might be related to the Aer Club roll out and that they're holding back award space until it comes online. However, J awards are available on DUB-BOS and DUB-JFK flights well in to 2017.

I'm just wondering if anyone else has noticed anything like this or has an idea of what might be going on. Thanks for any input.
