Ah thanks mucho mong!
United was worse at 175k for 1st class!
KrisFlyer at 110k for first seems the lowest.. no?
I'm assuming also that these are all one-way/per person.

Korean Air is RT . I know an lot of people do JFK to manilla via korean air , but they use delta miles. Korean Air i think is probably best value. Would you be willing to fly out of Dulles that may give you an lot more options. I don't think SQ or KE fly out of BWI.
I live between IAD and DCA so those two would've been ideal! If it is indeed RT....that would be the best bang for these points by miles (pun intended)!
Trying to send my parents back home via 1st class. I've got enough Ritz points to get them a week's stay in Manila. Now I'm just trying to figure out which airline gets them there in 1st class for the least amount of points. I appreciate the help mong!

The problem is with Korean you don't know if its coming back to Chase UR program or not, so i would look at alternative options. It would be really nice if korean air was still part of Chase UR program, but who knows if the rumors are true or not. I am assuming you don't have an amex MR card or SPG or something like that.
If you do have an Amex MR card you could either pool points into SQ from both MR and UR account to fly to manila. An alternative option is trying to transfer to delta and booking first class on delta , which is normally co-branded with korean air flying to far east.

We will see that is why i still deem it as an rumor. Its past halfway thru january and not even an word from either chase or ke on that yet, so not so sure its definite that its coming back in January.
Crossing fingers here!
Just went to Korean Air to get some baselines - IAD>MNL on 1st is 190k points+$460 ... but that's round trip!! Definitely much better than United's!
