the flights varied quite a bit in price so i was being very loose with the calculations and i didn't include the GST. it was just a general exercise. not a precise study. right about the AQM but that doesn't matter to me as i don't fly much anymore.
and yes, flights that worked for me were surprisingly available. i've looked at awards on this route before and availability has been dismal but at the moment things seem to be wide open.
