CCIE Security Lab Exam

[U5al3]

Dear All,

I am new here and this might make me posting this type of threat under the wrong location ... my apologies ...
I passed CCIE written security exam and want to move on for CCIE Security lab exam as it is a precondition to book lab before 3 months so I visit cisco site to book exam under suitable location there is not a single available date and then I change the exam center but the result is same. why is it like so? and what is the best way to book CCIE lab exam?  

help me by sharing your experience and valued bits of advice in this regards.

Thanks

Hi,

Did you checked only on dates 3 months ahead? If yes check further dates in some cities queue could be very very long.
You can also try check in other smaller cities for me it worked out (for different cisco exam).

Yes, I checked further but dates are not available. In the Middle East, I have only 2 options for exam center (Dubai UAE, Riyadh KSA) both exam centers don't have any slot available up to Feb 2020 which is actually the last date for CCIE security V5.
