- How many pax and how many award miles?
1 pax full award 207,500 miles + 680 € surcharges
1 pax upgrade Z-> O using 2 eVouchers.

- How many days/weeks/months did you book in advance?
3 months.

- Have you been able to book your preferred dates of travel?
Yes, no problem (but remark below).

- Were you happy with the award booking procedure (e.g. online/by phone)? How often did you have to check/call until you got the seats?
First called BRU SEN number, got connected to somewhere in Africa (?), agent couldn’t see any award seats even as I could search & see award seats online at same time. Called again the next morning, then local (BE-based) agent and no problem...

The award ticket was for my significant other, while I had a revenue ticket that I upgraded from Business to First on one leg (PEK-MUC). Pity that Companion award only counts when both passengers travel on Award tickets, not when the status holder travels on a paid ticket.
Mhhhh... see the following two posts from Oliver2002 somewhere above:
