I would ABSOLUTELY lock DOWN HKGYYZ right now. Ridiculous not to do so.

However, if you're on a budget and the cost of adding the HKGDPS award at a later date doesn't appeal to you ($125, IIRC sans status), you could possibly lock down SINHKGYYZ right now, and buy a ticket DPSSIN (2 hr flight) for less than $125 on Air Asia. Regardless, you're going to need to position somewhere the night before, given when DPSHKG operates. SIN hotels are cheaper than HKG, based on my experience.

Point is, DPSSIN is a cheap ticket. DPSHKG usually isn't (flight is over 2x longer).
