Thanks for the information. Sounds like no SQ. If I can only find LH J and F opens up closer to departure, is there any change fee? Any other good TATL airlines to consider?

Change fees for changing the cabin are $75 for nonpremier, $50 for silver, $25 Gold, and free for Plat., 1K and GS.

I have recently been doing a fair amount of searching for NYC-EU tickets on UAL.com. I have seen some LX C (mostly JFK-GVA) and LH F (mostly JFK-MUC), I have not once seen LX F.
Is LX F something that is not visible on UAL.com, or just not available at all?
e.g. for Friday, Oct. 12 (two days out) I see:
LX C: JFK-GVA (LX23: is frequently available)
LH F: BOS-FRA, JFK-MUC (LH411: is frequently available), and IAD-FRA (748!)

I've seen scattered reports of people redeeming for SQ C on the 77W or 345, but I don't think ever the 388. Personally, I can't imagine why they'd (rarely) release space on EWR-SIN but not JFK-FRA...
I saw some space on the SIN-LHR 77W in C when I was prospecting a DPS award, but we ended up doing CX F. In fact SIN-LHR was pretty reliably available (the 1 flight/day that's a 77W) 300+ days out.
Why not book LH and wait til near departure when F (probably) opens up?

I've seen plenty of LX C on that route, but no LX F. I've been looking for something next July, and would LOVE to know if F ever shows up. I'm assuming not, but if there are recent experiences to the contrary, that'd be great.

I've never seen anything available on EWR-SIN, not even during the great SQ availability weekend.
