As you can see, the only 50% discounted business class ticket is to Seoul, which often prices out competitively against other airlines anyway. It is not even World Business Class! Given there are only 6 routes in any form of long haul business class this month, it is not a fantastic list by any measures.
Still, if you absolutely MUST travel to these destinations using air miles, it's worthwhile having a discount where you can take it.
