If KVS says no, try phoning the ICC - there's a reasonable chance that Pune will be able to find you something.

Also even some flights that are clearly available on ANA (and thus KVS) and also to the ICC aren't bookable!
As mentioned previously, the
KVS Tool incorporates
3 different sources of
SQ Award Availability, including the expanded Award Availability that is accessible to
SQ's own FFP members. It is extremely unlikely that the expanded
BD DC availability (if any) will be more favourable than that.
Speaking of which, has there actually been any official conformation of its existence?
