I've had a very easy time getting Skysaver awards on AF J and FC this year, less than 30 days in advance. It felt like about every flight was available for J. FC I had to call back a few times to get the return, but then it was because I wanted a specific flight on a specific date (other 2 flights had FC avail). Not bad, considering FC only has 6 seats.
