Meaning only 2 weeks to the travel dates, EK will release the award seats!!! OMG!! I am so happy!! Other destinations like BRU, VIE also have award seats within 2 weeks of travel!! So the trick is to book in Business or First Class on another A380 flight first & change flight within 2 weeks of travel!!! HND do not have award seats on First Class on B777, only Business Class
FRA has the MOST award seats on all 3 flights, VIE sometimes have sometimes don't have on B777, BRU have 2 B777 flights, so have to book in Business Class first. OMG!! I am so excited!!
Thank you for this. I didn't know and has helped me out rather then leave the trip to the last minute. I don't understand what you mean by book business and change within 2 weeks? Do you mean if you have a ticketed First they release more seats on a 77W flight which are not available normally?
