AA Miles Award: TN / Air Tahiti Nui award redemptions (master thread)

I’d expect some possible complications in securing awards to include award seat reductions, schedule changes and perhaps some schedules dropped as the fleet reduces from 5 to 4, and Poerava Business seating is reduced from 32 to 30.

Boeing 787-9 “Tahitian Dreamliner” seating:

C30 (Poerava Business) 2-2-2 Rockwell Collins (née B/E Aerospace) Parallel Diamond (similar to J in the AA A321T or J on QR 777-200LR); lie flat but not all aisle access.
W32 (Moana Premium) 2-3-2 Zodiac Aerospace Z535 Premium Economy class seats.
Y232 (Moana Economy) 3-3-3 in two cabins, with Zodiac Aerospace Z300 Economy class seats
for a total of 294 seats

TN 789 seat numeration is:

Poerava Business: rows 1-5, columns AB, DE, KL
Moana Premium: rows 10-15, columns AB, DEF, KL
Moana Economy: rows 18-46, ABC, DEF, JKL

The departing Airbus A340-313 is C32, Y264 for a total of 296 seats.

Members have previously submitted some important information on successful award bookings on Air Tahiti Nui. These have been summarized and included in the Wikipost - be sure to read it.
