CX indicates "Notwithstanding any contrary booking terms and conditions and/or fare rules, for bookings made 7 days or earlier before departure via the internet on the US site, involving itineraries to/from the US, you can cancel paid reservations within 24 hours after purchase for a full refund in accordance with our refund process set out at Changes, Cancellation and Refund."

Has anyone tried if this also works on HK originated flights? i.e., if I bought a one-way flight from HKG to ORD on US website, am I entitled to the 24-hour no-penalty refund policy? I know it says "involving itineraries to/from US" but would just want to make sure because if they won't refund me I would just purchase from US carriers and claim refund.

I know this is kinda shady but would welcome any response. Thanks.
If you buy on the US website, the US law does apply.
