Mabuk-Thanks, I need to find someone who can get creative and book those destinations with my miles. Which airline do you recommend using UA miles to get best value (BR, SQ, TG).

glen-I won a charity auction for hotel vouchers in HKG, BKK & KUL, I added SIN since its so close, and possibly PNH. I may not go to TPE and SGN. Thanks for the recommendation on redeeming BA Avios on OneWorld partners. Are there any asian partners who do not charge fuel surcharge using Avios. Which would you recomend for flights within Asia (MH, CX).

Thunder-Thanks for the headsup. I will consider CX F, I believe it is 66.5k each way, and 55k in biz. I've been to HKK, BKK, KUL & SIN before, but I will be travelling with gf who hasn't and using hotel certificates in these cities. I would like to add one more city to explore, either TPE, PNH(or Siem Reap for Angkor Wat) or SGN(prob skip).

ryan-Thanks for the info on skyscanner for Asian LCC from BKK & KUL. I will check on availability from LAX-TPE/HKG-BKK on CX. I've been to Bali a few times before with the family, I found the beaches in Hawaii to be superior, I should make another trip and stay in a relaxing hotel. =D

biggest-Very funny on Singapore. It's so close to KUL it's hard not to visit. I hear what you are saying about the malls, I think the gf will appreciate it, time to do more OT. Some other things that interests me is the food, and visting the new resort they built, Marina Bay Sands. I am surprised no one has mentioned MFM-Macao. Is it worth seeing if you've been to Vegas numerous times? I will look at One World Explorer, however I only have 110k AAdvantage miles, is that enough? Thanks.

sprials-Thanks for the heads up on the comprehensive routing! May skip SGN & PHN, still thinking about TPE, maybe MFM.

injera-Thanks, i meant REP instead of PHN to see Angkor Wat. Why Hanoi instead of Saigon.

bazers-I think you answered my question above on why Hanoi instead of Saigon = Halong Bay! I still need to decide which cities to keep, can only travel for max 15 days including air travel! Thanks.

windcloud-Thanks for the advice on the using usairways to fly premium class and bookig open jaw. For SIN-BKK(stoppover)-HKG-SIN RT, is this cheaper than booking OW? I do have 45k US Airway miles now to use as of last week.

Long-Thanks for the heads up on the 10% redemption discount. Does this apply to Citi AAdvantage Visa/Amex cards too? I will look into the open jaw option, is MH biz class any good compared to CX? Thanskf or the recommendation on Airtimetable site, I will look at that. Only have 15 days, wish I could do RTW, still pricing out options to see if these programs are worth it compared to mileage redemptions along with LCC's.

epoymous-I've recently acquired 40k US Air miles so I am able to redeem either program. I hear you on Asin airlines service quality compared to western airlines, night and day. I think I will fly in C on intra-asia flights, maybe even Y. Thanks for the headsup on the regional redemptions. If I can use less miles to fly the better!

Thank you all for your advice, it has prepared me to make better decisions on booking my trip. It is a toss-up between using AAdvantage miles on CX, and UA on SQ. I like the idea of piecing toget 3 OW flights as sprials suggested. Very creative indeed.

farulg-Yes, all the responses have been very informative, I am grateful for this community!
