Reward flights
Quick question for anyone who might know:
when I look up F availability for LHR-IAD it gives me plenty of options. When I add INV-LHR-IAD to the search it only allows me to look up to J class…. Why does F disappear??
also anyone able to tell me best place to look for monitoring reward flights LAX-HNL? Pre-pandemic I thought I’d been using reward flight finder but this doesn’t allow me to look for flights departing LAX so maybe I am misremembering.

Yes it must be but I’m pretty sure this didn’t used to happen and it just defaulted INV-LHR to the next available class rather than cut F off for the international leg. Multi city tool isn’t appearing in the book with avios+241 voucher section. Might be that if I just called up to book this wouldn’t be an issue but it’s a lot less convenient not being able to just do it online

It makes no odds that there is no F from INV, I've booked several GLA departures (in CE) connecting on to F no problem. Isn't this "married segment" issue ? Not that I understand them........
Try adding in a "stop over" when it gives that option, but make the arrival from INV and departure from LHR the same date, that worked for me one time.

Use the add a stopover tool during the booking process and put your stopover as LHR, with both the domestic and transatlantic legs on the same day. This should get around the bug.
