IAH-HKG is unlikely. South America is not a strong UA market, so I am not sure if they really need the send the passengers from South America to HKG. NRT is a different story, as they have strong ties with Japan and GRU.
AA -> You take off the 7-day minimum stay, I will get the I fare without a doubt.

It seems the new plan for a lot of airlines is to move into China instead of HKG. I do most of my travel through HKG only to get into Shenzhen and have been looking at going direct into SZX and the pricing is getting closer and closer each year.

I still pine for IAD - HKG.. but alas I know that will never happen. I just did HKG - NRT - IAD last week and really liked the routing and timing. Of course the HKG - NRT seg was operated by NQ which was fine.
