Please could somebody check the following?
I have tried calling the ICC twice with mixed but negative results for availability of reward flights in economy.
13/06/09 - MAN / MUC - LH4869 or LH4861
13/06/09 - MUC / CAT – LH2638
27/06/09 – CAT / MUC – LH2639
27/06/09 – MUC / MAN – LH4868
ANA tool only lets me search MAN / MUC and tells me availability in both Business and Economy.
ICC tells me only Business available on both legs outbound and inbound there is no availability!

However, if I check MAN-MUC//MUC-MAN and MUC-CTA-MUC separately, all legs appear to be available in Economy.
P.S. NickB may be right but when I typed CAT the M&M search engine found CTA (Catania)

I notice the outbound connect time is only 30 mins for LH4861/LH2638, maybe that's why only J is offered. Very risky connection unless you don't mind staying in MUC for the evening

When I check the whole itinerary Business only is available on these dates.
However, if I check MAN-MUC//MUC-MAN and MUC-CTA-MUC separately, all legs appear to be available in Economy.

Hi
Thanks for your replies
Nick B was indeed correct it was CTA – Catania
Agree 30 minutes is tight!
Although listed on http://www.staralliance.com/flightSearchAction.do as a genuine combination and MUC is a pretty good airport. A night in Munich wouldn’t be so bad (At LH’s expense!) if it went wrong on the day.
So am I correct in thinking if I was to make two different bookings / redemptions I could get MAN-MUC -MAN and MUC-CTA-MUC in economy?
Presumably this would be 9,000 miles + 12,000 Miles (Zone 1 to Zone 1 + Zone 1 to Zone 2)?
Would we be able to combine these so luggage is checked through?

30 minutes connection in MUC is doable though with only one flight to CTA there is a risk you may have to spend the night in MUC.
