FWIW.....
I actually talked to a friend today who is a CX pilot and he told me was the strategy to get a few planes and crews positioned in the US to start flying some/most ex US flights on the 22nd and 23rd then operate a full schedule on the 24th. I am an interested watcher as I will be flying out of the US on the 24th.
Again, not official from CX but I would put a lot of credibility in the pilots since they have to operate in this environment.
