I do get the point. Just wondering if anybody has experience or knowledge to know when do Etihad & Qatar typically release? In the past I used to subscribe to Expertflyer and it never helped at all or was very delayed (2-3 hours). I managed to snag J seats on United by simply checking every 30 mins. Then I checked again in 2 hours and there was still one seat left and still no EF alert. Then checked an hour later and the seat was gone and all along there was no EF alert
