Getting on flights is impossible....
Has anybody else been trying to get to Australia and found it impossible or nearly so, especially for family when more than one seat needed?

I have mentioned this before...CX employees are not very creative in regards to staff travel in peak times. Everyone just wants to go directly to their destination - ideally in J or F class - totally understandable but this is the peak season.
Many times people return from A32 without a seat when a bit of thinking outside the box would have enabled their families to fly home.
Walk a few aisles eastbound and there might be a few seats with another airline...another option is (as a previous poster mentioned) to go via somewhere else...when heading south via TPE, Jakarta, Bali, Manila and Port Moresby or even Guam - northbound via DXB, AUH, DME or DOH?
