I used my American Express card instead, and it went through, though.
My friend used his credit card to purchase a CX LAX-HKG roundtrip and the charge was declined by his credit card company too. I know this is due to his previous purchase history (never bought anything over a few hundreds let alone an air ticket). A simple call to his credit card company solved the problem.

Have you used your US Diners Club card to purchase tickets at similar price before?
