I know that this one is not bookable, but can you please tell me how you build this routing? Do you use ITA Matrix for this? In the past I just booked, what OTA‘s showed me 😳

When the Swiss website calendar is showing availability, all it does is check for two A-class seats being available on the long haul. They zero out A-Class on a lot of dates when the F-partner-sale city is point-of-sale, even when say from ZRH, a flight shows A7.
In these cases you can also use a TA to waitlist A-class. It won’t always clear, but I had it clear for LHR-HKG in the recent ex-UK First Class partner sale, and also to another destination in the last one.

You could use "see calendar of lowest fares" instead of "search exact dates" to see prices for a 31 day period

I guess these fares were not supposed to allow third party segments in area 3 (ex Moscow they dont even permit BKK-HKT in J on TG...) so this does add options to us.
Note that most new SQ Suite flights are not permitted to be booked as interline segments under LH and LX fares (by SQ via RBD 2 restrictions), however, the one found here (HKG-SIN) is an exception (hopefully not the only one).

The fare, btw, is applicable to a party of at least 2, so a party of three is also possible!
Furthermore, I'd really like doing ARN-MUC-FRA-SIN-HKG-SIN-ZRH-ARN in September (specifically between 1st and 15th), if anybody is still looking for a companion ro would like to join me, hit me up!

I may suggest that the trick is to book via a neutral GDS and not via Lufthansa system for agents. That would allow to use different sources of inventory confirmation (in case of LH system you book SQ via LH inventory management and in the first case can have a direct connection; unless the systems become so sophisticated that LH/ SQ would not confirm their own segments in case of this creativity attempt since we techincaly have married segments).

2nd September to 11th September
ARN-ZRH-SIN (night layover 12h) SIN-(SQ Suites Class)-HKG-FRA-MUC-ARN
Still looking for a companion, last chance as the fare will expire on Monday.

Has someone found a reliable way to get those SQ Suites flights to ticket? Does it have to be through a specific travel agent?

I struggle to find this one at the sale price. I did though find to HKG via PEK, with CX F both ways PEK-HKG. Bookable on Expedia.
