Ugh my SIN-AUH-JFK in F is not looking great now for March....hopefully they adjust (still showing a380 on route), may not be worth it to use those points for F on 777/787.

It’s moot right now as Aeroplan is allowing free cancellations up to end of August.

Has anyone had any success going from AUH J to AUH F on same booking ? Trying to book CMB-AUH (J) AUH-JFK (F) both individually available however can not book together. Even stranger I can book to connect CMB-AUH (J) AUH-MUN (F) however can not book onto any A380 product from J.
EDIT: Can see on one date, but one dates wanted AE agent saying not possible (however can book each leg seperate)

Aeroplan system is very frustrating booking EY, wanted to fly CMB-AUH (J) AUH-JFK (F) however agent keep saying the could not see this available (though I could see each segment available online), eventually booked myself CMB-SIN (J) SIN-AUH (F)- AUH-JFK (F). Agent stated they could not see the F segment even on its own, thought I could book it directly on the date (had this issue trying other EY bookings as well)
EDIT: Was finally able to get desired CMB-AUH-JFK, all dates with those segments available opened up to book (previously agents could not book for some reason)

Etihad layover rules for AUH - max 4 hours now?
Some question as to length of layover available in AUH at the moment.

More than 2 F spaces
Hoping this group can provide some insight into Etihad F spaces available (using aeroplan). What are the chances of getting more than 2 F seats (eg book the usual 2 that seem to be available + 1 J, then wait for more F space to be released and upgrade J seat to F). I have read that timing of additional F seats is not consistent but wondering if anyone has ever had success booking more than 2 F seats with Etihad (ideally using aeroplan or AA) even if needing to wait. Thanks!
