How are you searching for availability? I have never seen saver awards on UA for LH J for BOS-MUC-TLV or BOS-FRA-TLV when I search for BOS-TLV.  Do I need to search each segment individually and then call (SQ or UA) to book?

52k is M&M you gotta search on their website.
Lately UA has been having issues showing LH F so search on AC or SQ for partner availability.

Got it.  Don’t have any M&M. Thanks for the tip about searching on AC and SQ.

Used UA to search availability. SQ website didn't show the availability.

M&M has availability that isn't available to partners.

Thanks.  Maybe the availability ex-BOS is just a lot worse than ex-NYC? Wouldn’t have expected that.

Quite restrictive. Especially for a lousy $100
