Or I just need 30,000 miles from SEA TO HKG? I won't stay at Taiwan. so it is depends on the trip or on the flight that I take?

Thanks again
SAUA is done by segment. It is possible to apply SAUA to just one segment; it is not a requirement to apply for both segments of a single ticket.

IIRC TPE-HKG should be North Asia to South Asia which should be 15k? I could be remembering wrong or an old chart.
