No Oceania properties, but some good ones elsewhere incl the IC Hanoi.
 
Is it just me or is that list getting smaller and smaller?
 
New list is being published but still a WIP, Australia features the CP Alice Springs, valid until March31.
 
Since when is French Polynesia in Asia!

Looked at lots of dates in February and March and could not find anything for the PB rate (but lots of other reward availability). Perhaps the rate is not loaded yet?

My brother and his girlfriend are headed to Harbin and Shanghai this month so this works out well then.

It does take a little while for them to appear as bookable after the list is published.
 
Doh! CP Glasgow available when I'm going to be over there, but I've already booked another place.
 
Holiday Inn Bangkok is available for a change but I am only going to spend a couple of nights in Bangkok and prefer the hotels in Ladkrabang which include transfer to/from airport and breakfast for 2 people for ~AUD30/night.

Anything to avoid bargaining with Bangkok taxi drivers to/from airport. ;)
 
Thanks for the heads up KPC!

Have booked a 5,000 points break night at the HIX Grapevine DFW incl breakfast & return airport transfers, also a night at the HICP MIA Airport for 5,000 points & return airport transfers plus another night post KUPP at HICP Z Ocean Hotel Miami for 15,000 points plus USD60.00.
 
Tried to book some in China and of course I always got: "There are currently no Reward Nights rooms available at this hotel for the selected dates." Not even for the regular amount of points.
 
Booked some single nights at IC Manilla (2 bookings) and then tried again for the same dates (to see what happened). Suddenly nothing was available on those nights - but heaps of rooms (all types including STANDARD) available for paid bookings (even with the 9+ rooms selection). So I got the very last award rooms on 2 occasions? This seems a bit questionable to me...
 
It's a pity that even with the limited amount of properties on the Points Break list, the available nights is also severely limited meaning it's quite difficult to redeem.
I'm thinking of complaining to PC that it's slightly misleading.
