Sometimes that doesn't work either, though.
I am not surprised that long haul routes like Japan- north America or Europe have very low availability, similar case for JL as well, but for lower redemption value (=less competitive) Asian routes like CGK or SGN or BKK to have close to 0 availability for next 5 months just seems unbelieavable to me..
