Looking for two tickets for my parents in J, with the most efficient use of miles.
They have never flown J before.

Est date of travel: 10/1

SFO/SJC to BKK with any layover in between. Stopovers are a bonus.

Current points bank:
236k MR
446k UR
70k AA

70k AA unfortunately is only enough for 1 person, one way on JAL, so that's out of the question.

Considering SQ but have not flown them before. is their J hard product good?

CX I understand is very difficult to get award seats? Which transfer partner is the best to try and redeem for CX? BA?

Any other transfer partners I've overlooked?

Thanks in advance
