I am trying to get family of four to the islands.
EY is no different from any other airline in this regard. Have you been able to predict when other airlines release additional seats in J (especially when total capacity is as small as 16 seats)?

In fact, if you put on hold and then release them, it is quite possible that even those will never revert back to award inventory.

Award seats with most airlines do not work the way Southwest works or how Pan Am used to work.
