For the airline industry, the world as it was before the pandemic will return (perhaps) in 2024; in the meantime, companies will have to try to adjust to a market completely upended by Covid-19. Fewer people traveling to long-haul destinations, more controls and restrictions that will accompany us until the pandemic belongs in the history books.

As the readers of TFC know very well, the main problem of those who are fond of reward travel is to locate premium seats; however, it appears that for the next 18 to 24 months this may be a relative problem. Business travel will be the last to recover-companies around the world will wait as long as possible before they start flying their employees again, so there will be plenty of premium seats available on flights that will continue to connect the world's major cities.
As well as more aggressive tariffs, even for first class seats, companies will also try to fill as many seats as possible by making more award seats available on their flights.
Did you get your flight cancelled, miss your connection, land late?
You could get up to 600€ compensation per person
Let's forget, then, for a few years about having to give the hunt for prize places as if it were the search for the famous needle in the haystack and rejoice in unprecedented abundance.
Using SeatSpy you can see how from this fall to early 2022 there is a NEVER-before-seen availability of premium seats with American Airlines. The OneWorld alliance company is making available even more than 6 seats in business for each flight, tickets bookable using Avios points and as usual with negligible fees.
Emirates is also added to the list of the generous, probably to support the connection's fill rate Milan/New York that will resume this summer. There are plenty of seats available on the route, which unfortunately will currently be operated with the 777/300 and not as before the pandemic with the Airbus A380.
While waiting to see what the Alitalia's future, these are definitely opportunities to take advantage of in planning for Christmas 2021, which will hopefully be the one that marks the return to normalcy.
