PER/BKK using amex points

Not sure if im in the right forum, only new here

I need to travel to BKK business using amex mr points if possible. I wanted to include accomodation so my original idea was to convert points to amex travel vouchers and buy a 6 day package type thing, but Thai economy flying with four star hotel was aud$1200 or 150k mr points.

i have truckloads of Qantas FF points but they only go to bkk via sydney (no thanks) so these seem unusable (ill rip thru domestically anyway)

i can join thaisilk? and buy an BC upgrade with amex 2:1ratio for 60k mr points making the total 210k points

or
use mr to stay at radison 54k per person with business class ticket thru thai for 160k points= 214k mr points

or use mr to stay at radison 54k per person with business class ticket thru singapore airlines either 130k points (2:1 amex to krisflyer ratio) for business class saver or 185k points for business class (what is the difference?)
so here's a total of only?
=184k points +not sure if costs to join krisflyer?
this last option seems the cheapest

am imissing something as i am new to this.
is sing apore airlines the best i have available to me???

any help would be great

You may want to e-mail the moderators & ask them to move this to the appropriate forum as I don't think you'll get full information here. Also, as it seems you're focusing on Star Alliance airlines, you may ask that it be moved to either the Star Alliance or the Milesbuzz forum.
