Did you book your stopover, too? I saw the October 27th availability. The next availability from JFK is November 10th onward.
There is availability before November 10th from ORD. An RDU-ORD award is also 4.5K.
I don't know how long you have, but you could see all of your desired locations.
Wild Suggestion:
1 AA RDU-JFK/ORD 4.5K
2 CX JFL/ORD-HKG stopover HKG-BKK 42.5K
3 CX BKK-SIN¹ 5th Freedom 7.5K
4 QF SIN-PER-SYD² 25K PER stopover
5 QF SYD-AKL 7.5K
6 FJ AKL-NAN-LAX/SFO/YVR 37.5K NAN stopover
Total 124.5K
¹ There is availability in Main, PE, and J at 7.5K/10K/15K in November.
² The SIN-PER segment is similar to SEA-JFK in duration & distance; one mile difference. SIN & PER are in the same timezone. The A330 has a 2-4-2 seat configuration, so window or aisle, no middle for the outer pair. QF also utilizes this aircraft on PER-SYD route
If you are short miles AS has an "up to a 60% bonus" throught 10/31/24.
