Do these fares work to just HKG from any point in the US? i.e. avoiding mainland China altogether?

I also would like to go to just Hong Kong. Don't want to bother with a visa.

A number of off topics posts have been moved to MR Discussion forum as that is the proper venue to debates matters that relate to MR's, not within the Premium fare thread which works best when it's just the facts with a minimum of discussion.
Thanks.

These fares make those buy-miles-for-cheap deals seem less attractive!

BOS-PEK seems to have climbed back into the stratosphere for all months I can see.

As I mentioned before, you must be able to find availability on the UA codeshares in A class. Use UA's timetable to find the codeshare numbers and EF/KVS/etc. to search for A availability on the dates you're interested in. You can then specify the departure times of those flights when booking on UA's website and the codeshares should appear in the list of flight options.

I understand the PQM would be 150% in these deals as Global First "A" class, but what is the final figure for Base award miles: 250% as A Class of 3-cabin First + 100% as Premier 1K member = 350%....? ? Thanks.
