YYZ-HKG-TPE would've worked if there's YYZ-HKG availability @@
but I'm sure YYZ-HKG-BKK would work for you

Thanks! That helps a lot. That's about what I thought about the Alaska points, though I have no idea about availability but I don't think I'll use them till about a year from now.

I'm still not sure what I'll do with the avion points, haven't looked into it yet. I don't know if it's worth it to go through all that to use them for a one way to Asia. I might just keep them either in avion or avios to use within N.A.
