As 2nd option, i tried air canada. but they need approx 70k miles, which similar to the cash price of these flights. Any 2nd best options to use miles to book these Star Alliance flights?

note- i am trying to confirm availability and feasibility first, before transferring miles from Cap1 to TK.

Try a non-US helpfine number and then HUCA. Last year when my dad was booking NYC-Toronto, TK website didn't show availability either, but a few calls to the helpline did the trick.
