Is this too much to ask? If they are going to lure us with the QF avaibility shoudn't there be a minimal number of seats out there....?

YADA, YADA, YADA

I just needed to vent. I actually know we are all screwed no matter what thay tell us

From what I understand, they release a few seats per flight 12 months out. The Qantas folks get access 1-2 weeks before the partners (AA, CO, etc) and tend to snap them up. I scored 1 first class seat about 9 months out, but I had to be VERY flexible. I checked many, many weeks and had to fly out 3 days early and leave 2 days late. I'm laying over in Sydney on the front and back end of the trip to NZ.

You can get a FF number with Qantas and check their site, but it's not easily navigated.

Good luck - keep trying.
