TPE D1 discount awards are still out there for travel through April 30th. 93.5K each-way out of SEA, and 110.5K out of most everywhere else with Amex 15% discount. That's roughly 2 - 3 CPM depending on origin (discount Z fares on SEA-TPE start at $2.6K one-way and $4.2K roundtrip). Unlike discount TATL D1 awards, the TPE awards do not require roundtrip bookings or have advance purchase requirements.
