Strategy for redemption
 
Since F have limited seats and aren't normally released for redemption until later on, are j seats normally widely available in advance?
So folks book j and wait list for F?

If I book 330 days out, would at least 2-3 F seats be available that far out?
When you wait list for F and booked for J, you'll need enough miles for both tix right?

what miles are you using?

the answer depends on this.

This subject has been discussed quite extensively in the past.

2 seats you have a good chance to grab but 3 seats I think it is impossible.

Thx LH. Good to know they release at least two up front. Might have to work hard for the third.
