I tried a few things, and shifting the dates so that MLE is at the end of the trip, and returning via Asia, appears to work OK. Can do MLE->SIN->ICN->YVR in SQ J and AC PY for 75k miles plus a little taxes (200$ each).

I would still need to book YVR->Europe, and Europe->MLE.
AC does have good one-way pricing to LGW, you could connect onto an LCC from there to BCN. Otherwise try Icelandair via KEF, they usually have decent one-way pricing.
