So it appears awards have settled into a pattern of allowing suites to be waitlisted Mon-Wed on SQ25/26 while business class fares can be booked at saver rates. If all else fails I can just waitlist the suites and book the business class. I still hope though that mid-January is not such a busy travel time that they do not permit suites to be booked.

Setho212.... I am hoping to book a very similar itinerary for Feb 2021 (my is JFK-FRA-SIN-DPS outbound and HKG-SIN-FRA-JFK return) so I am very interested in hearing how your booking experience plays out. Please post your outcome.

Thanks everyone. I find it a bit strange the flight had not been loaded yet. I have been monitoring award availability for the past few weeks and the flights usually become available at 8 AM Singapore time on the dot. I haven't checked since the time change in the US though. Perhaps that is affecting things.

I am trying to book SIN-JFK as soon as it opens up. I was always able to find saver suites available at 8pm east coast time but every week lately it’s not been straight wait list. Maybe it’s the time change? You said 8am Singapore which with the time change is now 7pm East coast?

Can you waitlists the saver suites then book business saver with the same points? I would do that and transfer more points if the waitlist clears.
