Well, the matter may have been solved, and not to my liking either. Today the 4th (E fare) segment posted to my AA account. The 3rd segment (downgraded to L from E fare) was taken a week before the 4th so I guess it too was reported a week later to AA as L fare.
Maybe the good thing is that I ultimately was op-up to J on the L fare. Relative short flight (ICN-HKG) considering the 4th flight was HKG-SFO.
I'll submit a claim with CX, since it appears that my tix # doesn't match the sequence of expected numbers to file a claim with AA. Let's see what happens. I'm just not going to get too overly involved with this as it was a trail run to use CX for my Asia flights. And, well, let's just say it was convenient, to go nonstop SFO-HKG as that's where I have been going every 4-6 weeks, I wasn't overly impressed enough to switch to using them as my primary ride to HKG.
