I have booked a ticket that is on hold until March 29.

SFO-SYD-HKG-FCO-ORD-SEA (will do SEA-SFO separately on AS).

Questions:

SFO-SYD is AA 7380 (codeshare). Agent assured me I get "full miles". Is that correct?

SYD-HKG-FCO is connecting only in HKG (95 minutes), yet it counts as a continent. First, the agent said my ticket was DONE3, but then realized the HKG connection makes it a DONE4. Is that correct? She said there are no options SYD-FCO that avoid another continent. Correct?

Fare quote is $8300 (+ tax). I thought it took a few days to get the fare. Is the extra time to determine tax?

(As indicated above, I am not trying to maximize stops, miles, etc.)

Thanks for any suggestions.
