I did notice that even though there was 1 seat available for purchase on the website, it wasn't available for redemption- so no way of knowing if this will impact award space.

The prices are a bit crazy, I was offered un upgrade from Y to J on SIN-SYD for 1740SGD, far cry from my MUC offer a couple months prior.
