No they aren't be they are a UA MP member and therefore you can book it using miles and addict to the overall itinerary.

So my questions are:
1. Is it possible to get #1 with all direct flight? If so, which airlines I can choose?
2. Is it possible to get #2 with all direct flight? If so, which airlines I can choose?
3. Is it possible to get #3 with 65k miles redemption?
1) Yes it is. SFO-TPE = BR, TPE-HKG = BR, HKG-SFO = SQ or UA
2) Yes it is.. This is the same itinerary as 1) but in reverse
3) SFO-TPE-HKG-TPE-SFO should be 65k. If it is showing otherwise online then it must be an error. Call UA and get the to make the itinerary over the phone ^
