Then return to BOS as one of your lifelong home airports, and see how you feel about the state of American industry and governance. It's always good to be home but...
i think it's laughable to see you compare BOS with HKG/SIN or even DPS...not even remotely in the same category, given ratio of domestic:intl traffic, and that all of the growth outside of basic TATLs (QR/EK/JL/HU/CX) has all been in the last 5 years. not sure how you could expect overnight massport expansion for a fairly recent development (especially given the politics with east boston). if it wasn't for the 787 and massive ME3 expansion, none of this would have really been in the cards IMO. if you want a better example of exemplary american industry/governance and aviation, check out PIT, STL, SJC, or even RDU
anyways, i digress, to actually answer OPs question, I have been religiously looking at loads on CX 812 during July/August on Expertflyer (trying to correlate at what point F seats open up, etc). Y has been 0'ed out when I was looking T-14 to T-28 for at least half of July and most of August...CX must be having a good summer, I would think it's a little early for college kids to come back, maybe it's HKG holiday? Decent amount of J/F availability, not a route I would expect there to be F on, but should be interesting to see if they can fill them without AA mileage redemptions.
