Usually good availability for SQ redemptions to Manila (4 x daily) for 30,000miles (UA Star) or 40,000 Krisflyer (34,000 after booking discount online) for connecting flights..
Same concept as flying with LH ex Athens where tickets are much cheaper, but for me to fly via MNL too much hassle considering also Manila as an airport , and CMB well. but thanks for the creative tip.
