Question Poor availability MEL-FRA in December

Hi,

Looking for one-way MEL to FRA around mid December, there is currently nothing available at all in Economy or Business.

I've tried the default "smart search" and also selecting Thai Air specifically. I've booked Thai business on this route several times before with LM.

The only availability I could find was BKK-FRA on December 17th, coming up as 78,000 miles which is roughly double what it cost previously (85,000 for the complete one-way trip MEL to FRA via BKK in Dec 2015). One segment BKK to MEL in business cost 40,000 miles in August 2016.

Have they jacked up the prices in general? Is my 500k LM balance now worth nothing?

If I book Thai Air Y or B class economy tickets outside of LM, do I have any hope of getting an upgrade through LM?
