To use these, I take it you have to fly (and not just book) during the month(s) where a particular destination is on the list?
There is a specific booking period each “quarter.” So for Aug-Nov 2018 awards, the booking period is betweeen Aug 1 and Sep 30. You have to fly in the month the particular destination (or origin) is listed (that is, if SFO is listed for a particular month, you could book a SFO-JFK award for that month).

I have no idea when the Dec-Mar awards will be posted, but I would bet the booking period will start Dec 1.
