Great report and photos! Thanks for the contribution to my source of all knowledge travel-wise
Btw, did you travel HBO for the ORD-HKG-JNB-HKG-DXB part at least? Just wondering whether you managed to tag bags ORD-HKG-JNB-DXB if not.

I suspect that would be possible subject to the competence of the ORD staff. What I think will happen is the bag will not go to JNB, but I'm not sure about it being stored in HKG more than 24 hours.

Notably, the QR meals were significantly less greasy/sickening compared to your typical 'airline food' everywhere else.
