Singapore air is increasing their redemption by 10 % shortly - I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled all their (meager) awards until after this.
You cannot transit Taipei
Cathay is flying almost no routes - cancelling lots of flights

I have a ton of thank you points (>300k), want to use that to book a business class ticket to Thailand from sfo, preferably through Singapore so I can stop by there as well. The issues are:

1. Singapore airlines business class fares require waitlisting, I need to plan and know ahead
2. China airlines require flying through Taipei, but right now the TW government isn’t allowing people to fly through per an agent I spoke to
3. there’s Cathay but I don’t think Hong Kong is allowing people to transit through either?

if someone ekmow some way to finagle this please enlighten me, thank you!
