Please note that you cannot use AA miles to upgrade on CX to anywhere else other than TO/FROM North America via HKG. So from Australia, you can't upgrade to London unless your routing is Australia-HK-USA-London. That way, too you'd need 2 awards. One way to USA and another to upgrade from US to London.

Perhaps those who live in N. America are not bothered by this but I, living in Japan, find it a bit frustrating to see AA offer only ex-N. America or ex-Europe awards. If you want to start in Asia, you need somehow a lot more miles to visit N. America or Europe. I hope AA amends this. JL awards are perfect, though.
