2. JAL - Anyone know whats' likely to happen if I book an award flight on JAL (for travel early next year) and JAL goes into bankruptcy again or leaves oneworld alliance?

Thanks.

1) if a plane change is within 24 hour it is transfer (well, transit), > 24 hour = stopover
2) as you likely get a ticket stock of 160-xxxxx that you are covered by CX, they have to accommodate you if you got screwed by that
