I only need date changes not route changes. but as pointed out I'm concerned around being able to change the date of the CTS-xHKG-PER as I am wary that CX wont have through ticket availability. I don't need stopover in HKG I was just trying to add it to circumvent the CX married sectors. I don't even understand how married sectors can exist on a XONEX booking.
If needed I could drop the HND-CTS leg to get me back to 16 sectors but is that considered a reroute?
Open jaw at the end doesn't count as a sector, so you're fine there.
Yeah, CX married segments are a major pain, especially to OZ and NZ from Japan. It is unfortunately though something we have to deal with on these tickets. But for what it's worth, QF is absolutely no better on married segment itineraries. CX and QF both love to have C9 D0 on those.
When is your current CTS-xHKG-PER? If it's not near any Japanese or Western holidays then you might be ok, but if anywhere near Christmas, New Year, Easter, Golden Week, Obon, etc. then it'll be a lot tighter on availability. The entirety of Ski season from CTS can also be problematic, lots of Aussies come up for that, and a fair bit from HKG itself these days.
