She says that they are not available and won't provide any more details when I asked why the website says they are available. Thank goodness I did not transfer my points yet.
These are JAL operated flights on JAL website.
J award pricing is dynamic. Even if it’s “available” at the price you are willing to pay for when you called, there’s no guarantee it will still be available at the same price by the time miles hit your account.
