This thread is amusing; You asked for Advice on the Direct flight and 3 or 4 posters have told you : impossible, which I will echo.

You come back every time and say the indirect routing has availability, but that's not what you want... have you read any of the responses? Do you think by continuing to ignore what people are telling you will make ANZ mystically open reward availability?

Long Haul ANZ even in Y is very difficult. Finding Multiple seats happens once in a blue moon (usually when ANZ messes up availability and opens up the taps).

ANZ Is the stingiest *A Partner for reward seats. Period.
