I can't answer this particular question. However, to update on the original topic of this thread, I understand Garuda now have regular (daily?) flights from Denpasar to Dili. Which presumably means that SkyTeam frequent flyers can now get to Dili on miles...

S7 is a partner in one world hence avios can be used for redemption inside russia and availability is quite big. I would hav thought that AAdvantage miles can also be used.

Redeem miles
Use AAdvantage miles to book award travel on S7 with oneworld and Other Airline Awards which allow you to travel to and from your desired destination using any combination of our airline participants. Please note that destinations in Eastern Russia are not valid for redemption on S7 using this award type.

For Swaziland, you can just fly into JNB or another nearby city in ZA and then travel by land to SZ. Although I honestly don't think that there's that much to see in SZ.

Delta also has a similar restriction that prevents you from redeeming on SU's subsidiaries that fly in Eastern Russia even though you may see the flights to be coded as SU flights.

Now, I don't believe the Air Iceland flights from REK "domestic" are available for redemption (and they ain't cheap, especially the ones to Ilulissat!) and I haven't looked into it but not sure if the Air Greenland flights allow redemption opportunities.
Furthermore, GL is essentially a territory, just like Tahiti or Bermuda... it's not an independent country.

Could have done it a few years ago when SAS was running to Kangerlussuaq. It was pricing as a then 50K UA Europe award via CPH.
