Or, if the class you want is available but on the flight with a longer route, then is that acceptable?
As has been discussed on a number of occasions, the ICC (thus BD) are starting to clamp down on flyers who were blatantly taking them for a ride. Do expect to take the direct route, especially when going via SIN is over 1000 miles shorter.
IMHO, SQ is a better carrier than LH and as you know with rewards, one does need to be flexible with dates. If you can't be flexible, prepare to pay cold hard cash!
