The limitation in power automate to 30 is awful and horrible. 
 
Has anyone tried this 
 
wait for 29 days 
then send an email 
then wait for 29 days 
then send an email
wait for 29 days 
send email 
 
so, the flow keeps moving doesn't time out?
 
I am looking to try this but if anyone has tried already, please do let me know. 
That way i can be sure if this trick works. 
 
my scenario is 
Once i create an item i have to send emails before 60 days of an event, 45 days before the event, then 40 days after the event. the event date is unknown, which can be 180 days from the item was created. in sharepoint designer flow i can tell the flow to wait till the 60 days before the event. 
 
looks like we don't have that function any more. 
 
the flow can't wait more than 30 days with current feature. 
 
is there any way we can overcome this.

    Since you don't explain what you are trying to do, not sure what advice to offer except to create a scheduled flow that runs every 29 days and send your e-mail.
