These aircraft are currently rotating through C-checks (-EQD is at ISL at the moment) and when needed the preferred substitutes are the 6F/42J/306Y (Camechanger F/J) configured aircraft, -EQH/I/J/K/L/M/N/O/P.
Helpful info! And would you or anyone else have an opinion on whether EK rotating an aircraft out for C-checks with the possibility of have to swap in a 6F/42J/306Y frame might also explain the low availability for F awards on EK235/236. On my specific flight (about 3 wks out) EK shows only 2 of 8 F seats unavailable (and I think 1 of those 2 might be a blocked seat), but J has 25 of 42 seats reserved, so J demand might also be impacting F award availability??
