Looks like F awards might be available after all!
Called EXP desk this morning looking for 2 seats CDG-KUL in January 2014. I wasn't expecting the option of F so asked about J. Agent said that F and J were available so I have 2 F seats on hold. PNR shows 'Fare Class P - First'
I should be confirming this later today so will report back.
EDIT: Itinerary confirmed with PNR showing 'Ticketed' including seat assignment in F cabin on A380.

I am seeing it on BA.com too. Generally wide open in F. Seeing many dates with F4 on the A380 LHR-KUL

That's great news indeed. Although... conventional wisdom says that redeeming miles for int'l F is the best use of miles. But I find current premium cabin fares on MH's A380 routes really reasonable. CDG-KUL-HKT and return for 2k Euros in J or 3k Euros in F definitely is a good value in my book. So I went, bought a revenue ticket and saved the miles for another time...

I have confirmation on seats in First
Hi All;
Have seat allocations & ticket numbers; from KUL to CDG, however unable to score them for the LHR or CDG to KUL sectors, so going Business Class in that direction.

Same, but I'm looking relatively close-in - July timeframe. I think some of the success stories were for next calendar year. I've not tested looking further out.

This is getting frustrating now !!! Flights on 2/28, 3/6, 3/16 have ALL credited to my Enrich account and NOT my AA account even though I told them to input the number at checkin. My AA number shows on my ticket stub too !
Another trip to KL Sentral to get this sorted out !!!

I just happened to look on ba.com and there's decent F availability LHR-KUL in Jan/Feb 2014. I didn't check anything else.

I just booked F KUL-LHR today for a flight this Saturday 23MAR13. I hope I didn't make a mistake, I had CX CGK-HKG-LHR in C, and changed it to F on the A380. I can't find a trip report anywhere online (a decent one at least), for any MH F A380. If anyone can point me to one, would really appreciate it.
