IIRC it's somewhere between $350-$400

FYI I just booked JFK-FRA-TLV F class on LH and it was 75k miles and $783!!!!

Double checked, you are correct, 783 SGD, although that's still a lot at $550. USD

I'll likely do that, though I prefer to actually know there is space before calling.

Call and ask about availability first. Wouldn't be surprised for it to be available considering that people need to know to call it in.
