Does anyone know a way to see Thai Airways award availability without having to transfer points to them? I have a zero balance with them and want to see availability before I transfer any Amex points. Failing that, does anyone know if availability shows up if you have at least some Royal Orchid Plus miles even if they're not enough for the flights you search?

If it shows it to Lifemiles most of the others should see it.

I think the only way is to call Thai.
That said, I'd avoid the Royal Orchid Plus program unless there are no other options. It's really not good value.
