How do you search for the specified airline? I did some search from gva-nrt and I got 80k miles and 187 euros for May and November. Is there a better way to search besides miles and bonus page?

research on the routes that the airline you want flies to, then check award space availability for each individual leg, then search the combined legs on M&B website.
ANA doesn’t fly out of GVA!

I search with the awardnexus tool for some business tickets and although I see a lot of flights I cannot find them in miles and bonus page. Am I doing something wrong?

Was this an error? I can’t get anywhere close to this. Also, I can’t even get that routing. Am I missing something (economy or otherwise). For example when searching on M+B website as open jaw, I can’t select ANY cities in USA from drop menu but can on basic search . Tried different browsers and even proxy and same results. I’ve got points ready to expire and I really would like to book a fun F trip somewhere.

not an error. Getting the ANA availability on both flights is the toughest part.
