Does anyone have any tips to make this work ? I'm expecting a sale by The Time Black Friday hits on Air France gift cards and would like to be able to use them, thank you
Have you tried using the multi-stop tool to force pricing the itinerary you are looking for? If it doesn't work on the AF website, try out the KL website. The two sites are basically the same, but I have on more than one occasion had the two sites offer mutually exclusive itineraries.

There have also been scenarios where ITA Matrix or Expertflyer will lead me to an itinerary and fare that the AF/KL websites won't price out unless I use the multi-stop tool. But if that too fails, then a call to their agents to manually price out an itinerary works well. If you keep all the flight numbers, dates, booking classes and fare classes handy it will be even faster for you.
