Hi All,

Apologies for this newb type question, but I very seldom in the world of *A and need some help. I discovered by accident yesterday that SAA Voyager is going to be increasing their mileage requirements for *A partner flights on the 1st of December. I have just enough miles under current conditions for 2 returns in J from Europe to Oceania. I really would like to try and get at least one direction on SQ from CDG/ZRH ideally. I tried calling SAA in London (where I currently am - and their phones are not being answered today it seems - just a recorded message to try again later). I then called JNB, but the lady help, although sweet and friendly said she had to try every single day one by one on her system to check for availability, and that was turning out to be a very expensive call from London. So, does anyone out there in *A land know the best was to find availability on SQ (any time for 2 seats from 02 Feb 2016)? Is it still via ANA? The last thread I can find on that is from 2013?

Sorry for rambling - any advice gladly accepted, as I have only until Monday to book.
