One of the subscription services I use to make my travel life easier is ExpertFlyer, which costs ~$100 per year.
I use it to look at fare class availability, seatmaps, published fares, minimum connection times, maximum permitted mileage between city pairs, etc.
One of the other cool features is that you can set availability alerts, whereby ExpertFlyer emails and texts you when availability opens up in the fare class you're requesting.
Unfortunately you can only set award availability alerts for a limited number of airlines, so it's not possible for airlines like Cathay Pacific, Japan Airlines, etc.
