Why not take the later CX505 flight? Or, if you trust CX not to cancel, the non-stop BOS-HKG (available starting near the end of March)?
You cannot connect to CX521. It is below MCT. I'm surprised if CX would allow you to book it. That looks like a bug if coming from the website. You need to take CX505, assuming it is operating.
