The best idea I've come up with for use of points is transfer to Korean Air and book a trip to Hong Kong first class. I think it's 165k round trip last time I checked.

Open to other ideas as well.
What do you mean by "2 rounds of transfers"? Once you transfer UR points to a UR transfer partner, you simply redeem for travel on that airline, or on one of its partners; no second "transfer" is required.
