I would definitely not buy a connecting itinerary involving HX at this point.
Aw Crap. Thanks for the heads up.
Supposed to be flying out from BKK with them on Monday early morning. Fingers crossed that nothing happens imminently.

Between HX problems and United chopping HKG off their schedule, making it really tough for East Coast / Mid-West customers to get to BKK now (in at least semi-comfort / using benefits of 1k).
