Anybody managed to book an award ticket with EVA air (...or Austrian)

As Eva Air flies direct from BKK to VIE, I was researching the possibility of booking with them but read that it’s not that straightforward. For example, you need to have 50% of the points required to purchase a ticket before you can buy the rest of the points, even when they’re on sale.

Austrian Airlines seems easier, but I was wondering if anyone here has successfully booked with either of these two airlines.

These flights used to be available with Lifemiles. Not sure if they are still an option (or Aeroplan)

FWIW (probably not much at present) I booked Eva LHR-BKK earlier this year using Lifemiles.
They're currently showing availability BKK-VIE, but uncertain whether it can actually be booked.

Thanks guys, on Aeroplan or seat.aero it is showing sometimes economy but never premium economy or business direct. Sometimes business with stopovers.
Also, when searching on Google flights when I find EVA air flight in business and then switch to premium economy that flight disappear.
I ll have a look in Lifemiles
