I have managed to get BKK-PVG on TG 777-300 in J for 21,000 A3 miles and €64.67. Nearly 5 hours in lie-flat, quite pleased with this.

NRT-CGK-BKK NH-TG J is cool for 11 hours (8+3) in biz class for 21k miles.
CTS-BKK-DPS TG-TG J is equally impressive at 11 hours too (7+4).
Enjoy the redemption!

I flew this one last year which was great. 11 and a half hours of Business Class for 17.75 EUR. Also got to spend 7 hours in Seoul for the first time, which was a bonus.
