I'm guessing if I can't see it online, calling won't help and obviously I can't screenshot it either. So are we .... out of luck? Seems like some link is broken between AV LM and AI.
Availability on LM does not match United's. Probably more like the availability is intentionally blocked rather than a broken link between AI and LM.

FWIW (not much), there was plenty of availability on AI through lifemiles earlier this year for FRA-DEL-MEL, although it would error out at the booking stage (due to the LH connection into FRA). But it was bookable via phone because it was visible on the website. So maybe it availability comes and goes.
