I'm more interested in knowing:

When I used 135,000 AA miles to book NYC to BKK First Class on CAthay Pacific, how much did AA pay CX for a seat that on the CX website sells for $26,000???!!! I imagine not very much - just something they all need to do in order to keep the profit from the mileage game alive. But it does intrigue me.
