Newbie Questions about UC Redemption

Ten years ago I was fortunate enough to fly back and forward to the US in UC courtesy of the company I worked for and was a gold card member of the FC for about 7 years. I loved the herringbone layout and the flip-over bed system and still think that the LHR Clubhouse is one of the best in the world. Sadly, my Business Class redemptions have been dominated by the BA Amex 2-4-1 voucher scheme for the last few years and we haven’t flown VS UC for 9 years. I am currently planning flights to Florida outbound in Jan 20 and back in March. We are going to Fort Myers. One option would be a VS/Delta codeshare to Atlanta and an onward internal flight to RSW. Other options would be LHR OR LGW to MCO o MIA and car hire. My concern is that, if I transfer AMEX points into Virgin FC, I cant get them back if there is no availability. Could I please canvas opinion on what UC redemption availability is like in what is a peak season for Florida. Many thanks
