Can go all the way up to EUR2,750 for 100,000 + 75,000 miles. Which is nearly a Europe-Asia round trip Business Class award ticket?

Is it worth it?
I haven't checked fares on CI from TPE to Europe but I spent roughly that amount for a R/T from Europe to Japan with a stop-over in TPE. The trip will result in ~30k miles & 100-odd XP. So...I'd say no for the money as you could get something more than just a flight for the same price.

EDIT: Sorry, it was more like €2,300
