Thanks for the clarification on the Avios. Since it's the same as AA I'll probably just use AA miles. It will put more of a dent in my account but nothing too terrible.
Check my edit ... I misread the SQ chart. UA charges 40K for business, SQ charges 30K one-way for business. So for 2 people, rather than 80K UA, it's 60K AMEX -> SQ.
