If there is a problem, they'll catch it when they scan your boarding pass right before you enter security, and then send you over to Cathay to fix it. I've been sent back before because my online boarding pass didn't register when they scanned it. No big deal.

Doesn't affect your departure tax situation, since you're leaving the same day you arrive.
