American Express Membership Rewards - Cheapest US-to-Asia Business Class 2 for 1

What is the least amount you've paid for a business class ticket (and on what airline) to Asia using the Plat. 2-for-1 business class benefit?

Also, have you found decent availability to Asia?

I'm considering upgrading my gold to plat, and this benefit would be key.

Thanks a lot.

It's full fare, if you didn't realize that..

It's my understanding that its only useful on certain routes, unless of course you always get full fare for business travel.

I would try CI/KE and maybe OZ/JL/CX to TPE or BKK. For example, LAX-TPE on KE, its 4430+taxes for a full C fare, roundtrip. There are 3 lower fares, C2 for 3724+ and JDELUXE for 3996+, as well as a discounted biz fare RBIZ 2298+.

LAX-KHH-LAX on CI this past January. It was just a bit over $3400 including all taxes and fees, which IMO, was a good deal.
