Is anyone here a travel agent (or ex travel agent)?

I am wanting to travel to Thailand for the whole of next August and I am looking at business class flight options.

Considering it is so far ahead, a lot of sites are claiming there are only a few seats left on each of the airlines showing the cheapest options. How does this work? Does the website advertising the flights only have a certain number of seats available, or does it mean that the flight will actually be selling out already?

I also keep getting emails due to cookies from travel agents claiming they can get bigger discounts on premium flights. I have rang one of these before and it has put me off because they would not stop phoning me afterwards. Do you think they are worth calling or will it realistically be the same as what we can see online?

I suppose I am basically asking how these things work and what would your advice be on when to book! At the moment we would struggle to book it but I am thinking that we should be able to either January or February, as long as that’s not too late!
