Asia Miles was not so great before. But after OW partner QF and BA raised their award level substantially, Asia Miles becomes quite attractive and is a bargain for certain routes. For example, East coast to Europe or HKG-SYD only cost 60K in J.

As for the double up your miles promotion, bonus miles are posted by Asia Miles directly and will not be reflected through points.com account. It took me about a week to receive the bonus. Please be aware this promotion is restricted to NORTH AMERICAN based Asia Miles members only.
