I see that QR also operates an earlier flight (QR 672) that departs at 2am and arrives at 9am in MLE, but I seldom see any award availability on this segment. Any idea if space will open up closer to departure? Will AA be able to open space on this route?
I can answer my own question! An empty award seat appeared today on the earlier QR 672 flight so I switched to that. Moral of the story- keep checking the schedule!
