What are the chances and timeline of a pair of F seats clearing the waitlist out of JFK in the summer? I've had 200k JAL miles for a while now, bookings were cancelled twice when Japan was still not open to visitors. When they began allowing tourists, availability at standard J levels was nonexistent. These miles expire at the end of the year and things are looking grim. Original plans were for roundtrip J but I'm settling for one way F in hopes of just using them before they expire. Have been on the waitlist for months and no luck yet, and keep doing the cycle every week of re-waitlisting. Would be a shame to throw in the towel and use these miles on AA.
