Question is: Which way will it be easier to change the revenue seats if the award comes through/does not come through? </font>
It is my understanding there is a change fee of $100 (or more) on CX H class tickets when changing dates, read the restrictions. The AA award seat, will not be assessed a fee if ticketed and you decide to change it, so long as the routing is not changed.
If you are booking for 3 people total, I recommend you keep everyone on the same plane and on the same dates. Unless flying seperately is okay between the lot of you.
I think the anxiety of hoping for an award seat to open will be unbearable.
