Mrs. Pickles recently changed the date and routing of the return leg of (originally) a BOS-SFO-HKG-LAX-BOS to HKG-SFO-ORD-BOS (yea, I know, one more stop, but eliminates a 10 hour layover in LAX), booked on a CX85A (boo hoo I miss the good old days) for a total cost of $10 HKD. This is what it cost her to take the MTR to China and go to the AA office in the Peninsula.
