(1) can I use 45,000 Asia miles to upgrade to a business seat if I class is available?
(2) Is American Express the only credit card company that can transfer points to Asia miles?

Thank you all again!
(1) I class is already business. You probably meant N. You cannot upgrade from N. For a flight with premium economy, you can only upgrade with economy M class or above to premium economy, and cannot upgrade from economy to business.
(2) There are other credit cards - http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/catha...hk-2015-a.html
