I am booking a return ticket HKG-HKT in biz (online from far away). For the same dates/flight KA gives me a D fare and CX a much more expensive J fare. I have tried at different times or simultaneously. Is that common? Will it make a difference regarding miles/TierPoints credit on my BA exec club account (I am not asia miles/MPC)?

Thaks for taking time. This is for Xmas period with departure Dec 21 to 23. it was 5570 KA or 12000+ CX. I booked on KA anyway. So that might have changed availability. When booking I opened the two windows at the same time. But I checkedf several times over the past couple of days, so it was a systematic difference.
