Yes, I set the search filter for non-stop on IAD-AMS where KL is the only option. Don't know why the search is not showing the 75K IAD-AMS options in your search, but I find when you give it too many options to think about it may not search as completely. ITA Matrix tends to do the same thing. The more specifics you provide in a search (such as carrier specifics), the more completely it searches for available options on that carrier. I often find that it can find cheaper options on DL than when you don't bother to specify the carrier and let it search across all carriers.

1. Remember that partner flights generally are only available for award bookings at "low" miles.
2. Be sure to look at later pages (or click on show all) of search results. Sometimes cheaper and better alternatives appear toward the bottom of the list and DL seems to have removed the ability to sort based on different criteria.

I've had a lot of success with DL awards that comes from lots and lots of searching in the DL.com award calendar. What I saw today was very odd IMO.

For the past month or two I've been looking at GNV/MCO/TPA/JAX-ATL-CDG with the TATL on AF metal in J and there are never any to pick from. I've looked at the non-stop from ATL and still nothing. Looked at AMS too and nothing on KL. These are in J in March.
