I'm flying JFK-HKG-AKL on May 17 on a AA 140K mile award. AA says no availability out of JFK on CX, so I'm routed to LAX on AA and then LAX-HKG on CX.

CX website shows (at least) 4 F seats available for purchase on the JFK-HKG flight on the 17th.

Of course I'd prefer, for schedule and comfort reasons, to fly CX all the way. Given that there are F seats available for sale, does anyone on this forum have an educated guess as to whether AA will have access to one of these seats as we get closer to May 17?

Thanks in advance to those who respond.
