KVS is showing plenty of L inventory available on the AA codeshare HKG-JFK flight for random dates this month - so no problem there it would seem

Unfortunately you cannot fly the AA codeshare HKG-NRT or NRT-HKG unless connecting from/to an AA flight - see the AA Timetable

I've had no problems getting CX "L" inventory (my current itinerary is PEK-HKG-SIN-BKK-BOM all on CX, have changed the dates a number of times without problem).

But be aware that "L" on CX gets you zero frequent flyer miles on the AAdvantage program. (And FYI - "L" gets you 0% on RJ, 25% on BA, 30% on IB, 70% on JL and 100% on AY, MA and of course AA - I think that covers all the airlines you're likely to fly on your itinerary.)

Assuming you want to stick to AY (to maximise AAdvantage miles) - the longest flight is HEL-LIS at 2,092 miles. (BTW I don't see your HEL-ATH flight on the oneworld planner.)
