The mileage cost is more than KE, but less in fuel/taxes, so pretty much a wash.

Probably do KE KIX-LAX, purchase a cheap one way to Denver since I don't think the domestic 2hr leg is worth the extra 18,500 miles for a Skyteam award.

Then DEN-KIX on either OZ or CA. Bit of a tossup here.
Take the OZ option. There are too many reports of sketchy things happening with CA award tickets that I'd avoid if you have other options
