Just checked: It very likely is a glitch, as my direct Sabre line shows the award classes, as well. It will very likely be "fixed" asap. Bummer. I fondly remeber the days when we could officially access *A award inventory on Sabre. For some time, it also worked with the KVS tool.

Not 100% sure about economy, but I think it's X.

Worked also with the other CRS (except Worldspan) via KVS but looks too good to be true.
@ Snoopy: O=First Class award, I=Business Class award, X=wasted miles
BTW: R (Employee or op-up Business Class is not shown)
@AJLondon / SmilingBoy/Alex:Hoho, you were quick (OK, I was slooow)

Mostly because of a double open jaw and switching airlines, so if I were to book the ticket, it would price out in full Y.

However, I agree with flysurfer saying that this is most likely a glitch .
Anyway, enjoy it while it lasts ...

and i noticed that there are many many award seats to asia this summer...
i was already wondering why it was so easy to get 2 O seats for exactly the dates and routes I wanted
I'd almost say, LH deserves a little thumbs up
