The sale requires 10 day minimum stay, unfortunately. It is still ongoing.

I would be willing to pay $3K, but not $6K. What route is the $3K sale available on? Thanks!

IAH-IST-BRU with a 3-hour layover at the TK lounge looks okay (June 19th outbound) as a start. Not the best arrival time, but you can hit a bar or two before bedtime.
The IST connection is a great idea, thanks. I did not think about that route.
Can I waitlist for the IAH-EWR/IAD/ORD-BRU flights without buying a ticket?
LH has $3K fares for my period from EWR to FRA. Surprisingly, the fare out of IAH is $6K.
A paid ticket IAH-EWR with 30K miles for updgare plus the $3K fare is cheaper than the $6K fare. This is probably my fallback solution.
But why are they not opening any of the R inventory?!
