150K each way is a lot, but if you really need to go and the cash price is exorbitant, 150K can be a great price.
*A has the most Asian airlines, so I would look on Aeroplan. Try plugging in different destinations around TPE and see what comes up. But again: there aren't as many flights to Asia as there were pre-pandemic, and many people who were looking for Christmas flights would have already booked, so I wouldn't expect much availability, especially in business.
