As far as I know, when the Secureflight/ APIS field is blank, some carriers inhibit ticketing.
Generally speaking AA will not ticket without SecureFlight as they will ask for DOB/Gender before ticketing.

CX will ticket without APIS based on first hand evidence on AA issued tickets and also with CX.com bookings. APIS is only required for check-in as passports can/do change between purchase and travel.
