For the duration of such promotion, you could simply call TPE reservation team.
I'm not sure if it's really a promotion because when I've always looked at flights and if there is I-fare availability, they always offer the R/I mixed ticket, not just TPE, just many regional destinations (especially PVG)...
Anyways on the phone I booked a recent trip and they offered J over Y in my KA segment for only $100HK extra.
