I was looking to book a Skywards trip, but things did not look good seeing as how my preferred flight was showing J0 and C0. Yet to my surprise, there was tons of award availability?!

So bascially EK is willing to release a J award seat on EK 004 (good for me ^ ) but is not willing to even sell a FULL FARE ticket!
I wonder why they do this....
