Emirates partner availability

I am trying to book a flight from IST to DXB in December of this year in Emirates Business.
The flight shows D availability on expertflyer and is bookabale through Qantas, but for some reason Malaysia does not have availability.
Shouldn't Malaysia see the same availability as Qantas?

Thanks for any info.

EK restrict inventory according to different channels - so D may be available to one partner but not to another.

Always go via the availability on the channel you want to book with.

On the subject of partner airlines (albeit not entirely on topic with the current thread) ..... we tend not to see quite as much talk of Alaska Airlines redemptions these days.

Don't confuse that for them showering Plats with kindness out of the goodness of their hearts though - loads seem to be pretty poor at the moment so lots of space available

In a weird way, I almost miss those "I'm travelling JFK-DXB with EK in F, and intend to spend all night in the DXB lounge ahead of my return flight, assuming this is allowed........" sort of posts.

The initial reaction was a sense of bafflement as to why someone who could afford F would not want to book a quality hotel. But then ....... we would ask if (by chance ....?) the ticket was an AS award. And, more often that not, back would come the response .....yeah, we guessed it
