Qatar regularly has sales on their US to Asia routes. I've seen US->KTM for as little as $2500 in business class. Not sure I'd want to use my miles on something like that, when you can just buy the airfare, and earn EQM/EQD instead.
Keep an eye on both the Qatar and Mileage Run (premium) forums here on FlyerTalk.
