Does anyone have any insight on when United might actually release any saver fares at 40k per ticket for US to Australia? Are saver fares available for similar long-haul routes on United (US to Africa or Asia), or are they also only available at 150k?
When do you want to travel?

Australia has *not* recently re-opened its borders.
From 01 Nov AU will open to vaccinated AU citizens, AU permanent residents, eligible family and limited others.
I would expect the restrictions on others to apply for 2021 calendar year.
