Award travel on Singapore Airlines is temporarily unavailable. Our airline partner is diligently working with us to address this situation.
Award travel on Singapore Airlines, TAP Air Portugal and THAI is temporarily unavailable through MileagePlus.
— We’re working on making these awards available, and you may still be able to find awards on other partners.

It would also be extraordinarily difficult to implement this with partner airlines and UA's IT can barely handle regular UA operations ... so I think we'll continue to see partner awards at current levels.

Seems that all TG F/J award of long haul flights are gone after July 2019.
None is available like LHR,FRA,SYD,TYO.
While regional J is still available like ICN,SIN,HKG,PEK.

This is not a Mileage Plus issue...other *A programs are showing the same lack of availability ex Australia...ex BKK to Australia is OK.

It seems that now UA is now not showing availability of NH flights as well. Same NH flights can be booked using NH, TG or Lifemiles.

Hey guys, I had been eyeing BKK-MEL//CHC-BKK on TG, booking with ANA (from MR), for a while. On Friday, there was plenty of space. Now that my plans have solidified I went to book and I see ZERO space on BKK-MEL, BKK-SYD, BKK-AKL or any of them in reverse. I'm looking on EF and I see zero space on any TG flights, for 2 in biz on any dates. I'm trying a week from now, September (when I want to book) and 355 days, NOTHING.
What happened this weekend!?!
