At about 500 miles from Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) to Taipei's Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), a nonstop runs roughly 1h30, give or take with the winds. Nonstop award space in the data comes from Cathay Pacific, Starlux Airlines, and EVA Airways. Aircraft logged on those nonstops include the Airbus A350-1000, Airbus A321, and Boeing 777-300. About 70% of the award options in the data are nonstop, so a direct award is a realistic target.
Hong Kong–Taipei rewards discipline: redeem only when points beat what the ticket costs in cash. The cheapest economy seat is a partner award on a Starlux Airlines nonstop, so the lowest price is also the quickest trip. Taxes and fees on that seat run about $58, in line with the route's typical economy taxes. If the cash price is modest, buying the ticket is often the better trade. Transfers out of bank programs can't be reversed, so confirm the exact flight is bookable first.
Alaska Atmos Rewards is cheapest in economy at 7,500 points and premium economy at 10,000, both on Starlux Airlines nonstops. Avianca LifeMiles wins business class at 14,780 points on an EVA Airways nonstop. Among the remaining five programs, Qantas Frequent Flyer, Air France-KLM Flying Blue, and Virgin Atlantic Flying Club are good places to cross-check. Avianca LifeMiles takes over at business class, so the right currency depends on where you want to sit.
Hong Kong–Taipei draws nonstop award space from two alliances: Cathay Pacific (oneworld) and EVA Airways (Star Alliance), plus Starlux Airlines. Partner programs in both alliances can each book a nonstop. The lowest business-class award here is a Star Alliance partner booking: the EVA Airways nonstop through Avianca LifeMiles.
On the Taipei side, Songshan (TSA) costs more, at 12,500 points in economy against the 7,500-point floor, so it's a second choice rather than a first. Hong Kong to Bangkok prices the same, from 7,500 points at last check. Check the arrival airport code on the award before moving points.
