Thank you both. Turns out I was able to book LAX-HKG on one call; towards the end of the call the agent couldn't 'see' the HKG-JNB availability so I had to call back in to have it added on. Seems like quite the manual process but totally possible.

I've since called in and changed a few dates around, and I truly think CX awards are bound by the HUCA rule.
