Travel date would be end of February 2025, but might be a mission impossible. Seems Finnair is keeping its promise to have ”at least” 2 business award tickets/per long haul flights, meaning exact 2. Yesterday I was glad to find 3 business award seats to Hong Kong in January, but today there is seats for 2 only. There was multiple dates, so it’s hard to believe that the seats were booked over night from all the dates for year from now.

So any tricks or tips how I could make this happen? I will be waiting witht my lit fingers when the tickets are released for sale for my travel dates and have multiple destination options, but still, I am afraid I am not able to get it, even a year in advance.
This was via BA with Avios rather than Finnair but I got 4 business class tickets LHR-HEL-BKK for this February about six months out. Not sure if the same availability applies to Finnair as BA though.
