ANA First Class Availability
I called up Flying Club to try and see if there were any flights available for some time in 2020 but I was told that the first class bookings were not available until early January - is this normal?

Also, IMHO you're better off finding the availability you want, then calling Flying Club, rather than relying on the agent to search for you.

I'd like to book an open jaw going something like this: East Coast US -> TYO -> LHR/FRA
I'm able to find availability in F from the US to Tokyo, but haven't been able to find anything to Europe. If I book a return to the US now, would I be able to change that to an open jaw to Europe should it become available at a later date? (Assuming any changes in taxes and fees would apply)

I meant like anytime in 2020 which doesn’t seem to be right at all. I checked for a flight that was available on United’s website for award bookings and gave the agent the flight details but they still couldn’t find the flight - under 330 days out. :/

Without details, the only advice I think that can be offered is HUCA.

Like a few of us are saying, you probably just got a rogue agent who doesn't know how to book ANA rewards. Call again...

I see those flights - but they are for 1 person; if it was just me I can pretty much take any flight around that time frame, but I'm trying to get there with my wife in F class only
All these seats keep dropping from people booking 1 seat a time FML
We can leave 10/21, 10/22, 10/23 - any one of those days

We can leave on 3 specific days isn't really going to cut it, even this far in advance...
