Do I have to redeposit my miles to AA and rebook, or can I just call AA and tell them I want to change the itinerary to a Oneworld carrier?
Hope this isn't the wrong forum for this question.
You probably booked a partner award instead of OneWorld award - they are 2 completely different types and rules are very different.
Yes it is in the wrong thread if your award is a partner award. See the thread title.
But to address your question, you would have to pay $150 change fee for that change because you change the destination from NRT to HKG as well as carrier from AA to CX. Just call AA to check if there is award seat on CX for you to change to.
