I don't think there's anything I can do on the script end short of just hardcoding it to ignore flights after 353 days, but on the other hand, it seems it might be handy to be able to see in advance seats that might open up in the next week. I'll probably add a message somewhere to alert the user that those flights may not be bookable yet.
Definitely a useful feature to view in advance seats that may open up in the next few days, even if they are not yet available for booking.
