HKG-DFW to compete with AA would be suicidal for both carriers IMO. AA is already losing money on that route.
And if Delta hasn't even attempted ATL HKG, you can bet that it would hemorrhage money. Delta is in a much better position to operate that route than CX.

Mexico City, Seattle, Calgary, Montreal, Washington DC, and Miami (with a stop) should be all candidates to receive some kind of service.

In Europe, the mentioned Madrid/Barcelona and Copenhagen are both logical choices. I'm not sure where else they can go. Istanbul? Munich? Vienna? ( )
