I can't predict for normal business traffic, but I doubt there are a lot of business traffic going to Asia at that time of the year. Plus LAX-HKG is quite an easy upgrade
Thank you for the info about CNY, but my flight is HKG-LAX not LAX-HKG... I will depart on the 14th and arrive at LAX on the same day 14th, but I'm heading to the other direction and it seems business traffic won't be affected? Unfortunately I won't take AA193 LAX-HKG...
