Having a bit of a look for next summer and there’s not much about apart from the USA which has loads of availability – typically 4 x J next summer.
Any thoughts on other routes which typically have more availability (I have a 241 voucher so there is supposedly more availability with this)
Other question – can you use the 241 on any of the partners e.g Qatar etc?
Amex BAPP voucher may be used on BA, Iberia or Aer Lingus. Although Aer Lingus is a challenge as no guaranteed seats, smaller J cabins on smaller planes, waitlist preference given to their own elites.
The extra availability with the voucher is confined to certain types of fare, it’s not across the board, and a lot of it seems to have dried up recently.
Seats are only released on BA 355 days out, so a big chunk of the summer award inventory hasn’t appeared yet. For very popular routes in school holidays, you do need to be prepared to book as soon as they’re released.
Lots of articles and threads about all this on this site!
