Yeah, since I need to leave from Thailand it's pretty much my only option. I'd fly down from CNX to BKK. I looked into flying to SIN first, as well as KUL, even HKG, to try to see about other partner availability, and it's still it's a fight to find anything before 2025. I could call into AA and ask their advice I suppose. I know some people subscribe to expert flyer and have success with that, but I find it a bit confusing and TBH don't want to have to put that amount of effort into a trip that has so much flexibility.
So to be clear, you're so frustrated by AA that you're willing to sell your miles to a broker, but you're not willing to subscribe to Expertflyer since it's confusing and requires an amount of effort you're not willing to provide?

As I write this, American has HND-SFO available on 3/29 for 60K in J or 80K in F. If that day doesn't work, they have NRT-SFO available on 4/2 for 60K. If you're willing to fly to TYO, availability exists.
