I used the ITA matrix site to find two I Class JetBlue mint award seats from LAX to MIA in 3 days...it seems like there is no practical way to make a JB award booking if you want to travel with in 3-4 days due to the process of "requesting a reservation"... unless you are extremely flexible.. I'd welcome thoughts on this.

Separately, the QP Award desk told me just now (11/23) that even though I'm seeing 2 I Class seats , the rep is not currently able to book them due to system issues and I must select a One World carrier. Wondering if others have had recent issues securing JB domestic awards using Qatar Privilege??
