They are the most flexible ex HKG for sure.

Thought that might help. Wonder if they can do anything the night before when I arrive?

I'd assume changing airport is not ok.

Seriously it's only been LHR that did not waive it.

PS: assuming you booked CX451 as a through flight. That is, you're not ticketed as NRT-TPE + TPE-HKG.

CX450 so yes a through flight.

CX542 is preferred with an afternoon departure, plus HND would be a bit closer to town. Its showing F5 on the 15th next month, so I'll keep watching BA to see if something opens up for AS.

Thanks for the thoughts
