In TG, redemption tickets, including ROP redemption are not entitle for any STPC if I’m not wrong, it’s only available for paid J and above, not even Y.

Have you looked at a cash ticket DPS-SIN non stop on a range of airlines?
It is not a long flight.

I’m getting 25K miles + $40.5 for O/W DPS-BKK-SIN on UA website. Care to share how to fly without spending any mile.

All domestic flights in New Zealand are economy only. (All airlines) Best you could get is an economy seat with extra leg room. AKL CHC can be a $100 or less/more.

I don’t see any biz flights AKL-CHC on UA website and even if there were this itinerary doesn’t qualify for the perk and hence no free mileage on DPS-BKK-SIN.

Extremely poor use of UA miles and as stated in other posts no business class between Auckland and Christchurch.

What you write is not within UA regulation but it works due to an IT glitch.
I guess that’s why OP called it hidden.
Happy to have learned a new trick.

So the OP is getting free business class on TG on a very long connection between DPS and SIN, and wants to know if a free hotel room is also included? No, if you want one, pay for your own hotel.

Why not just fly SQ on a direct flight?

TG will not provide any hotel, even if you were in revenue biz class. Anyway, except for the prizy Novotel directly at the airport there are plenty of cheap/reasonably prices hotels in the vicinity of the airport. There is a thread dedicated to BKK airport hotels in the Thailand forum

I just ask if they provide hotel...if not I will pay for hotel

I can fly direct DPS-BKK but
thai option will give me kids rare opurtunity to fly on upper deck of 747 adn also test new a350
its about bucket list not time and cheper cost
