Thanks in advance for any advice...

TK and TG are the only choices available? Seriously? Well, TK C will beat TG Y, even if it's the old style TK C seats (a few TK A340's still have old style).

But have used various *A inventory tools to check all options from Germany? Besides Lufthansa, there's Swiss via ZRH, Austrian via VIE, and Thai flies to BKK from a number of continental European cities for which you might find C availability. And I'm sure there are other options too. You'd probably find lots of help in the UA forum.
