A couple of questions:
1) Is a 2 hour layover at HKG sufficient for making the connection (we'll have plenty of time for the Wing before the return HKG - DFW - especially since the upgrade is looking questionable - so that's not the primary concern here)
2) I assume despite separate PNRs for EWR - DFW - HKG and HKG - SIN (the two tickets were booked separately as an EWR - HKG return and HKG - SIN return) that I can interline our bags all the way to SIN (especially with an AA ---> CX connection) eliminating the need to collect at HKG
3) I am OWE but my sister, who I'm traveling with, is not. Does my OWE extend to her for booking exit row seats (or other "priority" seats) on CX? If so do I just need to call?
4) Last but not least - what would be the best two seats on an A333 in Y (as of know it's showing regional one way and long-haul config for the return but I know swaps do occur frequently on this route)?
Thanks all - this will be my first CX experience (and hopefully my only one in Y - next time I'll be on miles earned from this trip in F instead

)
1. As others have said, no problem.
2. Yes. Although
https://www.aa.com/i18n/agency/Booki...tkt_policy.jsp does not provide you with direct answer, but you can assume that it is covered.
3. Technically, no, but if you get an inexperienced or nice agent you might be able to get it. It is not restricted by the system AFAIK.
4. Please consult with SeatGuru or SeatExpert.
