^ is not "flying JFK-LHR in Singapore Suites."

That's trying to use Singapore miles to fly Singapore suites from JFK-FRA. Then, LH F via one connection to LHR.

Not gonna happen, and definitely not on a single award. It'd require not only backtracking (which SQ will not allow), but transiting the same city twice.

^ Sounds reasonable

But for your reference, the closest LH F route ex-FRA is probably DXB, but there's a good chance you'll be stuck on the old F.

You could do this:

JFK-FRA on SQ R (SQ miles)
FRA-DXB on LH F (with whatever miles)
AUH-LHR on EY F (with AA miles).

Pretty sick.

You're willing to jump through all of the hoops required to get a Southwest CP? Or to plan a AA Explorer award?

:-) I think it's different. It would be really cool to get a private Porsche to drive me up to a plane and to sit in a very fancy lounge, but only if it were on my way anyway and it just meant spending some more flying to fly F over J.

The SW CP netted me ~$3500 of free travel and will iy"h do the same or better this time around. The AA Explorer got me 13 legs on 1 ticket that would have been possible otherwise for a measly amount of miles. To me, those are in a totally different category than getting to experience a nice lounge.

Exactly my point.

Right. Gotcha as I was writing it.

AUH-LHR on EY F would be in apartments. Which would be insane, but probably really hard to get an award on them (I haven't checked in a while though).

AUH-LHR will be in apartments.

And even when that service starts, in December, not all the flights--there are two or three--will be operated by the new A380.

It's not possible to book with points, or is it?

That's some trip.
I don't think that's for me.

I thought I'd be able to find a 2 hour-ish flight in F and then a 3 hour-ish flight back to LON.

It's probably time to replan.

Nope, not possible.

At this point... Once it starts in December, isn't there a a chance it'll become available?

As of now they don't release any any saver availability for F. Though for J there is availability.

Though you can make a speculative booking on the 77W and hope that by the time you're going to fly it will be on the A380. Im booked on EY AUH-JFK in May '15.....
