Does anyone have the access code for F fares for the Lufthansa search engine? I am trying to price a more complex itinerary using the multi-city option but on the 2-4-1 landing page (which autofills the access code) it seems only return searches are possible. I have tried copying and pasting the hidden access code but that doesn't work.
Swiss doesn't require the access code but wont allow multi-city searches with sectors in europe when searching for F.

Yeah the LX landing page has been down for the past 2 days. Lufthansa doesn't show fares unless they are actually available in this promo. Right now your best bet is probs using google flights to try find days with availability. Once you find availability then search using the LX website (If there is LH flights in your itinerary then click advanced search and choose 'Lufthansa Group' from the drop down menu).

I see F availabilty for MAN-HKG in December and thats about it.
The LX website has many available return flights, but no away flights
Looks like this event was sold out before it was advertised!

Not all flights and prices are correct on LH and LX websites
Booked a MAN-DEL return in F for late 2020 yesterday. LH via FRA outbound and LX via ZRH on way back.
LX UK website did not show the flights I wanted but sale price was correct and LH website showed the flights but price was double the sale price.
In the end, booked via Amex travel UK website which showed the correct flights and correct price. So not sure what is going on but got the flights I needed.
First time in F on either airline, so looking forward to it.

Also, the LX (and LH) call centres can be your friend here.
If you call and say you want the special fare, they will help you search, and they can construct fares which the website won’t show you.
Basically, if you can find A class on the long haul.. a GOOD call centre agent (and that isn’t all of them) can get around the married segment problems.
I did this myself this week. I do wonder what the point of a sale is if you don’t have stock you actively want to sell, but anyway who knows...
Good luck!

Surprised this has disappeared so quickly down the FT page.
I've been looking ex-LON and mainly to HKT/BKK/SIN and in J and finding loads of days available. Just worth playing around with. Got a LCY-SIN (LX) // HKT-LCY (using Helveticas direct HKT-ZRH in November for £1,268 (pp, based on 2).
If you've given up on this, might be a good time to check your dates again.
