Example- Have your award take you to CNX (not BKK). You can structure it something like this...

JFK-BKK-CNX, hang out in Chiang Mai for a few days
CNX-BKK, free stopover in Bangkok for however many days. From this point you can buy your r/t ticket to Phuket.
BKK-JFK, continuation of your return ticket.

Just a thought.

Thanks to both. I was just focused on Bangkok. I will get the award ticket through to CNX.
