Yes, I forced a multicity booking thru with a short leg in Y and the long leg TPE-YYZ in J. Ticketed. Done on Aeroplan despite the multiple errors. Encountered similar errors with several LOT bookings on 5/8.

Couldn't even reach Aeroplan phone line as a 25K. Used my experience forcing the booking thru with those LOT bookings.

Booked via the Air Canada app, despite having a loading "We are working on your reservation..." page for 5 minutes. I lost patience and ended up restarting the app. At the same time, I received an email confirming my reservation from Air Canada.

Thank you. I was looking 360 days before but I guess everyone else was faster than me haha. Maybe I'll have better luck with last minute flights or someone cancelling.

Are you booking a refundable cash fare for now?

EVA just dropped a ton of J saver space between TPE and North America through April 2024 according to EF and United search engine, in case that is helpful

Which tools do you find the most helpful when searching for flights? I don't have access to cowtool yet and was wondering if there were other ways to search. I've just been manually searching on the Air Canada website which is obviously not the most efficient haha

United to browse availability on the 30-day award calendar, Expert Flyer to set alerts for specific routes, and seats.aero to search for close-in availability / set alerts based on point-to-point availability.

No I haven't booked anything yet. Looking to book through aeroplan points. Would you advise I book refundable cash fare first?

Question: How often and in volume does EVA offer business class seats to partner sites for you to book? Is it closer to your planned date or farthest from your planned trip? I am trying to plan for future trip next year to Korea.

They usually release tickets 5 days before departure

Thank you. I am usually a future planner, I guess I have to take the risk and book closer to the date.

Anybody know why they have only been releasing 1 J or about how long until it will go back to being 2?

kaiotes May 25, 2023 12:28 am

Anyone's guess. Perhaps summer schedule?
