I do wonder if they'll either retrofit any considering the loss of the F space on the 380s or if they'll just wait for the 350s and the 777Xs

Or just not exist as a separate airline

I thought Singapore Airlines was scrapping/blocking all F seats through Feb. of 2022?

Oh perhaps. I had been looking at a booking in Dec or Jan (22) and it was showing first available but that was weeks ago . . . and they may not have removed the inventory? I was looking at SIN-SYD.

Hopefully that comes back since Etihad is very unlikely.

Dogmatick or others, any chance you could check this for a flight for me? MLE to AUH please - shows up as 86,045 miles (i.e. that is miles + cash tax treated as miles), but I want to know the pure miles + cash tax element. If you could kindly assist please. I can't find a way to do this without having miles in my account. it would be much appreciated!

Yes just checked and confirmed that it is doing the taxes via miles, I believe that if you call you can pay the taxes as cash instead else use the slider in the payment field to reduce the miles to roughly that shown here and pay 337 in cash

What is availability like for this? Recently transferred some Amex points to SQ for this very redemption for when things resume to normal.

Have a look on SQ website or check on UA. A brief look at first 2 weeks of Jul LHR-DXB shows:

1st - LH & LX
2nd - LH
3rd -
4th -
5th - LH & LX
6th - LH
7th
8th - LX
9th - LH & LX
10th - LH
1th -
12th - LX
13th - LH
14th - LH
15th - LH & LX

Lots of seats on all those days. So for July there is tons of availability!

Great, looking at Oct/Nov so should hopefully have options. May likely be EDI-ZRH-DXB so hopefully that wont hinder things
