Not sure I understand the problem. Is it UA is not providing a W fare to HKG but rather lower fare classes?

If so, have you tried forcing a W fare or calling I asking an agent to force W?

Or used Google flights to force a W fare?

Or is the problem something else? A routing issue? Needing to use multi-city?
