For 2018 I've cleared the following Y-->J SWUs at booking, all on the days I needed to fly:
- LHR-ORD
- LHR-DFW
- ORD-NRT

in 2017 I cleared 2 of 4 at booking (FRA-DFW, DFW-LHR), as well as one miles+money (SYD-LAX), also at booking .

My experience is that SWU's are commonly available at booking. And even when not available at booking, I've still never missed an SWU request as EXP. YMMV.
It’s probably obvious but do you make these reservations by phone?
