Hi all,

Never flown SQ before, but I was looking to go to NRT this summer so I thought I would see what is available in F as the LAX-NRT flight is one of the few that actually allow you to use a sane amount of miles. Much to my shock I was able to find a saver seat for the return to LAX, but not for the outbound but they were offering a waitlist for that seat. How likely is it that that seat would become available by July?

Alternatively, I found an outbound flight from LAX-NRT on the date I wanted on United J, would I be allowed to combine that with the SQ F return? Or would I be able to waitlist for the SQ F outbound while holding the confirmed United J outbound?

I recognize that the difference between SQ F and United J is significant, but its at least the flatbed seats on United and at least I would get there in some degree of comfort if things didn't work out as planned.
