250k points in what currency?

likefunny

Singapore flies the A380 to FRA from JFK which then continues on to SIN, try that.

I transferred Amex points to ANA to book on Eva Air round trip business class Chicago to Singapore with a few day layover in Taiwan for some extra site seeing. I don’t remember the exact total but I think it was less than 250k. This was about 5 years ago though

The best redemption as far as product goes would be on Singapore but as someone else mentioned award availability is extremely tight. They also mentioned ANA, which is great but again probably limited space. You could book on a Star Alliance airline through Aeroplan (Lufthansa or Etihad probably the best).

If you provide your departure airport and dates I can do some quick searches for you.
