I've never seen flights priced over 70/80k on this route avail with partners.

I feel like an idiot. I’ve been searching DL for saber availability home from Europe for a month now and haven’t found anything for a month. Dl may be imposing a close in restriction on some routes.

And AF removed their calendar search, so that makes it complicated on their side.

You can use EF for DL (partner) Saver.

HKG-SIN, SQ R (New A380,) waitlisted
SIN-FRA, SQ R, waitlisted
I'd like to fly CX F home but their award availability has been wildly inconsistent and close-in space hasn't been opening up like it used to so I want a good back up plan.
