Hmmm. But the opposite yes?

SQ.com doesn't see anything but SQ.

Apparently you're not looking to book flights *on* SQ, but only rather book flights *with* SQ.

Could have been clearer with the question... garbage in = garbage out.

As Platinum notes, SQ miles can be used to book anything seen on UA.com while logged out, but if you're looking to book flight on SQ metal, you'll need to use AC/NH/SQ.

Lesson learned and thanks for your help appreciate it.

Yes, of course. (How else would they get the plane?)

No. Once you use a partner, you have to use the star alliance chart. Read: more expensive.

Flight leaves FRA at 8:30am so you'll have to spend the night in Frankfurt in order to do that.

My bad. I've become so accustomed to people on DDF asking about F on that FRA<>JFK flight, which is 57.5K after discount, that I got confused.

Hurray..........
I'm going to travel in the Singapore Suite!
I wait-listed a couple of weeks ago on the JFK-FRA route, time is coming closer & it wasn't cleared yet, so I decided to pick up a phone, the agent was more than happy to clear it for me!! just like that! so I figured out my entire route (I don't think you want to know it... :)), she put it on hold for five days, more than enough time to transfer the remainder of the miles from chase to SQ, and...... I'm all ready to go.............
