Business Class return to US on Miles and More
I booked Business class from Denver to LJU for 9/2/2024 on M+M points for 78,000 points per person, about a month ago, and am trying to book our return for 9/13 to 9/16 time period and practically nothing is available, and what is is for 3-400,000 points per person. I have also checked several other gateway cities such as MUC, FRA ,VIE, ZRH. I have no problem paying surcharges but can't find anything available. Is this just surge pricing? Any suggestions? 2 people flying Thanks!

Figured it out. Lufthansa flies to something like 26 cities in the US. Instead of just checking for return to Denver, we are returning to MSP on a 9 hour business class flight, then we will get back to Denver on SW, etc. I know this strategy, just had a brain far#.
