Oneworld advice Cathay flying
Greetings
I am a NW plat with few miles on any OneWorld carriers. But, next month, as part of a CO itinerary LAX-HNL-GUM-HKG-DPS-NRT-LAX, I have two flights on carriers that I think would justify joining CX's Asia Miles. But, I'd welcome any advice that folks on this board might have. I'm flying CO for LAX-HNL-GUM-HKG and CO coded NW for NRT-LAX. HKG-DPS is on CX as S and DPS-NRT on JL as H. Reading the AA web site, it appears that I can get 70% of the mileage for the JL flight but nothing for an S fare on CX. It also looks as if I'd get 100% if I open an Asia Miles account on CX. Am I missing anything?
Thanks.
