I need to travel to KTM (Kathmandu, Nepal) this October from Chicago. Of all of the transfer partners, any recommendations at first glance on who to focus on for a RT Business seat? Thank you!
Additionally (if relevant), I do have the following, but would prefer to use my MR points if possible!
Delta: 215k (don't want to use all of these though if possible)
Chase UR: 30k
UAL: 110,000
US: 80k
American: 37k

The major alliances headed into KTM are * and ST. You should check ST partners for J availability on EF then use Skymiles (120k for J). Korean usually has decent availability in J over TPAC. Check ORD-ATL-ICN-KTM would be a good route to look at. Check China Eastern and China Southern.
