I have always found that the price of *A flights using Airpoints is good, if you can find them! Sounds like there is good availability if you’re looking on the right routes.
Definitely is on the East Coast > Europe routes I would say. Lots of competition within *A and from what I could gather, the best availability was with SWISS, TAP and SAS - not Lufthansa or United, which is probably not all that surprising.
