I'm talking about the tlv to ewr. Between 12,85,91 there are 100+

True, its 150 Seats between all three flights.
I guess just set up alerts and hope for a small miracle

SQ allows a free stopover on partner roundtrips. Can I book JFK-ORD-HND(stop)-CNX/ORD-JFK?

But btw no SQ partner flies JFK-ORD nonstop

M&M is mush more expensive!
EWR-MUC-TLV

But it's another option.

I'd use SQ unless you either have a ton of UA, or you have a lap infant (then I'd use M&M).

Swiss opens up close-in space about a week out on their ZHR and GVA flights to NYC, does that sound right, or they open up more than a week before?

Their availability is messed up. Call a rep and check UA/AC/NH/TK/EF so you have some idea whats available.
I just ticketed a ticket today that wasn't showing up as available anywhere online.

Two SQ reps told me I can't pay $100 to add a stopover on a one way saver award. Are they correct or not?

Route is BKK-SIN (stop)-IST-TLV
