Only problem so far: apparently no SQ pnr
Is this the solution?
Went to classic.chekmytrip.com per Daniellam's suggestion. Im flying four airlines on my itin (though one of the 4 is the Austrian regional owned by LH; so I'm thinking it may be 3 airlines total technically?) and it shows 4 ticket numbers and 3 PNRs. One of the 3 PNRs is a repeat; so it's two total unique pnrs. None of the ticket numbers starts with a 6 however (I thought sq started with a 6).
Does all this info provide any insight to anyone who is wise in these areas as to whether my pnr/tickets have a problem or not? It seems many are in the same or similar boat as me so any insights would be appreciated.

Ticket will be 016 if it's issued by UA.

Trying to switch an upcoming flight to SQ. Wife tells me to wait 
Not quite sure she understands what we have going on here.

After all this is over, in a few hours, it will be next to impossible to book or change SQ O/I class bookings for quite some time. Make sure you have booked the date/time you want.@:-)

Has anyone booked an award ticket in the past few hours? I booked one around 9pm and still don't have confirmation and ticket number from united. I am hoping there is just a backlog.

Has anyone actually been able to make a change to an existing award reservation online to SQ or must you call?
It's telling me "no flights match your date" or some garbage like that - not even any other options showing up, which confuses me....
Eta - I'm changing origin city of that matters ...

I got exactly this message. I don't think the online award change function works at all.

I guess for this it wouldn't hurt to call? I'm always hesitant to call when there's a "too good to be true" trend going on, but since i'm calling UA and not SG I guess it's doesn't matter.....right?

Please help a multiple city newbie
I've already got a confirmed F award SFO-SIN-SFO, but after seeing all the amazing routings in this thread, I was wondering if someone could help me get something more exotic for the same amount of miles. I tried using the multiple city form on UA.com with the Award Travel raido button pressed, but it kept giving me an error. Thanks

Welp, just called up and scored JFK-FRA on SQ in J for my trip in 2 weeks. To say I am happy would be an understatement....although I'll still be looking to see if any F pops up.
No SQ PNR yet, I'll take a look through things and see if I can find it an do the seat search.....
ETA: checkmytrip found my SQ PNR using my LH PNR....but cannot locate it on SQ website yet to pick seats...
Further ETA: That was weird. I was able to go onto LH website to select my seats for the LH flights, but also the SQ flight. ??
