Looks like 80k booking before Oct 31st, and 100k after (round trip). It also mentions that one way is available at half the round trip rate as of April. This is surprisingly a pretty good deal, especially for F. It's too bad that Amex Japan dropped JL as a transfer partner for MR last year, I may have to pick up a JAL credit card now.
I have to say, the redemption rates are VERY VERY GOOD, even after the devaluation. I can't say the same with the current FFP I bank my miles with. I like how they treat Korea and Greater China as the same regarding the redemption.

It's a pity. I love JL. They just don't have the frequency that I'm looking for.
