I found these biz fares work out of SEA for a range of dates as well. I actually purchased SEA-DUB on Delta through ATL so $1550. JFK on the return.

The 10 day minimum stay is problematic, but I am going to make it work.

It seems you didn't factor in the 50% MQM bonus for Biz class, which puts your itinerary at just north of 23k miles and under 10cpm

I just booked Nov 23-29 MIA-LAX-NRT-PEK-NRT-JFK-MIA $2420 (27,400 ~ 8.8cpm!)

DL Atl-DUB J $1590ai rt

Delta has a good business fare to Dublin for $1590 rt. I rarely see any good deal premium fares out of Atlanta so perhaps someone can use this. Dates I entered 1/8/13 return 1/22/13. Nonstop flights.

Looks like the DUB fare works from both ANC and HNL if you really want to rack up the miles. Thanks, OP!

Qatar has an offer on this weekend, £1745 MAN-HKG. Travel thru end January, 5 day minimum stay blackout dates over Christmas.

Must book by Nov 4th.

An extra £15 for LHR departures.

Not a huge bargain, but the cheapest from a quality carrier I've seen on this route recently.

More about these UA MIA, FLL -> Asia fares:
A 787 Dreamliner routing is possible, via LAX, for flights in Late May, June, and early July 2013.

Tempting.
