CPH-BKK was no problem, quite many dates available when booking 4 months ahead, but the problem was BKK-CPH especially during the validity time of my half points offer. So the initial solution was to put BKK-CPH in X (economy) but as I realized that would essentially miss the point, the final solution was to book one-way TG flight BKK-PVG (390 eur incl.tax in D) and I class PVG-CPH. Open jaw is no problem with award tickets, it seems.

So, we got HEL-CPH-BKK-PVG-CPH-HEL in business class with total price 420 eur and 61400 points (considering 3600 points we get for BKK-PVG) for one seat, and in addition got 1000 eur vouchers each for downgrading to Y for CPH-BKK!
