I recently signed up for the 100,000 mile promo and am planning an Asia trip. Thinking of LAX-NRT-HKG-KLL (or BKK or SIN, instead of KLL for the last leg) and return flight of SIN-LAX. I am thinking of using either CX or JL metal for the route.

First, which airlines stopover rules apply? Is it, BA's rules since it is "their" award I am using? Or, if i redeem them to fly JL, do JL's stopover rules apply, instead of BA's rules?

Is it possible to do a stopover in NRT AND HKG on the way to KLL? Can i also do as many stopovers as i want on the way back if i decide to go SIN-NRT-LAX on the way back for another stopover at NRT?

I'd really like to exploit any stopover rules and see as many places as possible in Asia/SE Asia for a good month long trip.
