Award availability was not required for the new dates. Travelling in J.
Nice work

That's good to know. Glad that date changes are working for you. Annoyingly all 3 of my reservations say " You are unable to make changes to this flight online. Please contact your local Service Centre to change your flight" so can't do online changes. Hoping that I don't need to make any changes (April and June bookings) but could be likely.
