Thanks again
As gengar correctly pointed out, upgrades are per segment but there is no need to upgrade both segments in the itinerary. Your flight will consist of two segments, SEA-TPE and TPE-HKG. You may choose to only upgrade SEA-TPE for 30k miles, or you may choose to only upgrade TPE-HKG for 15k miles, or you may choose to upgrade both for 45k miles (30k+15k). I would suggest the best value is to only upgrade the SEA-TPE segment.
