Nope, still filed...
BTW, I was able to work in a long stopover (greater than 40 hours) in SIN and greater than 24 hours in GRU even though the rules state that a HIP check must be done for stopovers (and that should spike the fare). My recollection is that most routing based (as opposed to MPM) fares don't have a HIP check, so I was surprised to see one in this fare, but it doesn't seem to be coded into at least some OTAs.

I am fine with everything except when they downgrade without even a warning...

Actually, I believe SQ and MH is excellent in honoring fares! I flew SQ F on their ex-RGN a few years ago and it was honored, along with a few MH fares.

No. The Round 3 ex-RGN fares were RGN-YUL and that didn't stop BA from canceling its own segments nor did it stop LX from downgrading its F pax to Y at check-in (speaking from experience on LX).

Having trouble building in a stopover in BCN from November to February. Any tips? I was using multi-city in ITA with power tools.
EDIT: Disregard above. Had to change routing codes to JJ SQ for the 1st 2 segments and SQ SQ for the last 2 (SCL-BCN-Stopover-BCN-SIN-COK)
