It seems trying to search for anything past May next year comes up as an error. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Nope

I'm seeing wide-open availability on SA's PER-JNB flight in June-2015

...and I could easily pull up availability on TG MEL-BKK in Jun 15...but if I changed the airline to SQ...error.

I'm not sure why I'm feeling compelled to buy these. My regular runs between Costa Rica and Colombia are about to come to an end, but living in Medellin, it will be nice to have a nice bank for weekend trips to CTG for a while. Plus, who know where else I may want to visit in South America once I get settled.

Maybe I am a sucker, but I think I'll load up one more time.

Could be it. I was searching BNE-CMB in Jul/Aug which would probably be on SQ...

I realise you'd be looking at any class, but SQ J is not available outside of T-14 between Australia and SIN...unless you're using KF points.

Ah, did not realise that either. I might try looking at TG to BKK then!

Is there some sort of limit to the number of transactions to purchasing miles?

I bought 10k and then another 10K for a total of 40K, but the system is now not even showing me the bonus when I try to buy 2K more.

I know the 75K / 150K limit, but am I supposed to keep it under 2 transactions per bonus

You can only do it once or twice per account per promo.

I got burnt the 1st time too as this rule wasn't listed in the purchase page.

Damn that's evil of them. Why try to sell miles, then add this clause, and then hide it lol

Lesson learned, always read the fine print.
