Go to the Asia Miles homepage to look it up.
I think you've misread my post entirely. I know (obviously) that what I quoted are the mileage distances. I also know that HKG-JFK RT in F on CX is 220K miles.

However, I'm asking about a mixed carrier award where the rate for a 20000 mile journey is 205K miles. I want to know if what I'm trying to do is a legal routing or not.
