Roughly 910 miles separate Seoul's Incheon International Airport (ICN) and Taipei's Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), so a nonstop spends about 2h20 in the air, a little more or less depending on winds and direction. Three airlines carry nonstop award space in the data, including EVA Airways and Asiana Airlines. Aircraft logged on those nonstops include the Airbus A330-300, Airbus A321, and Boeing 787-10. Only about 6% of the award options in the data are nonstop, so most results connect.
Points have to beat the cash fare to earn their keep on Seoul–Taipei. The cheapest economy seat is a partner award on a Korean Air nonstop, so the lowest price is also the quickest trip. The data lists only about $17 in taxes on that seat, likely incomplete for an international ticket; confirm at checkout. Run the miles-or-cash math each time: a cheap fare usually beats spending points. Bank points transfer to Virgin Atlantic Flying Club; check for a transfer bonus, then confirm the seat before moving them.
Virgin Atlantic Flying Club wins economy at 7,000 points on a Korean Air nonstop. Alaska Atmos Rewards takes business class at 15,000 points on a Korean Air nonstop. Among the remaining six programs, GOL Smiles, Air France-KLM Flying Blue, and Air Canada Aeroplan are good places to cross-check. Alaska Atmos Rewards takes over at business class, so the right currency depends on where you want to sit.
Nonstop award space on Seoul–Taipei includes EVA Airways and Asiana Airlines, among other carriers in the data. Before transferring points, check which airline operates each leg of the Seoul–Taipei award.
Confirm the airport before moving points; Taipei itineraries can also arrive at Songshan (TSA). For a longer redemption from Seoul, Singapore is tracked too. When saver space runs out, a few days of date flexibility is the main lever.
