Doesn't matter. Especially if it's Japan. CX behaving like a scalper.
Largely true.
I did see Choice availability turn into standard availability at the very last minute- at under 48 hrs for SIN-HKG-SFO, last week. Roll of the dice- I wouldn’t do it without a backup in place.
OP: how about 2 oneways - ticket the outbound at standard, and waitlist standard for return + hold/ticket the return leg?
