Well my plans to start the DONE4 ex NRT seems to be harder each day:

1) Availability issues on NRT-SYD
2) Cost of getting from HKG-NRT and award availabiltiy for 2 PAX in X Class is hard to get for the flight I want to connect at NRT (if it is just myself than it wouldnt' be a problem)

so I am considering to ex TPE, which according to EF is only less than
$3k HKD difference, and I still have a HKG-TPE ticket which needs to be used, so no problems there...

If anyone has full CRS access can they check the publish price for DONE4 ex TPE just to make sure I am right:

ex NRT DONE4 = $48630HKD
ex TPE DONE4 = $51550HKD

Also just wondering is there a ticket counter where I can pickup the PAPER tickets @ TPE. I have only dealt with etix before so don't know the exact situation there. (may not be able to do a turnaround, if I need to head to the city to pick up the tix)

Thanks
