2) Where is the best/easiest place to find IE off-peak dates for March 2020?
3) Does IE availability enter BA's system at 355 days? If not, approximately how far in advance are IE flights available vi BA Avios?

For the curious here's what I discovered:
1) Off-peak BA awards on IE metal still exist. I believe my problem was is there's a non-Avios One World partner providing one of the segments the IE leg will always be charged the Peak fare.
2) avios.com
3) I am not seeing any IE availability on a few different routes after 29 Mar, 2020. That is 341 days from today.
