Also, two other options:
1. you could look into Lifemiles or Aeroplan (though booking on SA partners has been scarce lately, but I imagine that's from the initial rush from the pent up demand) through Chase. If you have a stash of UA miles, they work too, but I believe the most expensive now (a recent TPE-LAX in J was 88k!)
2. Flyingblue seems to have decent CI J inventory (was able to find more ONT-TPE on CI than LAX-TPE on BR). It's kind of steep at 90k miles, but if you have a cache of UR points, that's another way to get to TPE in J.
