In fact, could he perhaps book a codeshare CX flight, with AA flight numbers on AA ticket stock? They the ticket change would follow AA rather than CX rules, but he'd still be flying on CX operated flights.
Would rather fly an Asian airline instead of a US one. I have also posted in the BR forum.
CX flight on AA code is about 40% more expensive unfortunately. It looks maybe they only ticket full fare.
But thats a good idea thanks. JX on AS stock is actually same price or even cheaper than on JX but its on JX code so not sure if the change rules follow AS. Need to check.
