For example, today, I was able to use your tool to search for YVR-NRT on JL departing 01 Sep 2023. That date is 357 days out. I saw two J seats available, and tried to book it, and it worked! Got two CX 160- e-tickets (JL metal) emailed to me already.
So, apparently, in this example, JL offers bookable flights for redemption earlier than CX does!
That’s not news. For HKers trying to redeem for Japan, Avios has turned into pesos as AM is superior for both JL and CX redemption window and availability respectively.
