You can PM if you prefer, I'm debating whether to transfer a slug of miles into AA or Avios (Avios offers a nice bonus, but I don't think it is significant enough to offset the value difference). Either way, enjoy the flight!
With Avios, you pay the same amount of YQ and taxes CX charges on JFK-HKG flights
