Pricing?
I have a reservation on hold for JFK-LAX(AS Y)-HKG(CX F)-KUL(CX J). JFK-LAX is available as a Y Saver award. The agent tried to get it manually priced because it was showing as 122.5k and not 110k but she came back and said that it's pricing as 110k + 12.5k because I'm not flying the most direct route and that CX operates JFK-HKG-KUL. I don't remember this being the case before but I haven't redeemed CX from not JFK in a while. Should I HUCA or is this something new?
