192 5/21 Cancelled today
Got an email overnight HK time from CK desk stating that todays (5/21) 192 cancelled due to MX. Was offered 126 to DFW (2.30pm), but will still be working, so taking 192 on Tuesday instead. I have stated before but AA really need to bolster their ability to handle MX for Asia operations.

No nothing on CX offered (I didn't push either). It was a rare occasion I was OK with a cancellation. Got to spend and extra day with my lady.

A lot of MX issues for wide body flights ex-DFW the past couple of days... AA127 left this morning (21 May) when it was supposed to go out yesterday morning. Same with AA945 to SCL... 13h late. I think AA48 went out almost 4 hours late yesterday as well.

Guess my Aug/Sept and Nov trips didn't have this when they UPG'd all flights at ticketing. I had heard about this back in February when I changed our HKG-LAX-JFK RT's to HKG-LAX RT. Fare desk said not necessary though I did have an unusal change fee amount, but just thought it was a fare difference as the fare was lower and I had a credit.

Joy, 5/30's 192 delayed to 4pm on 5/31. Delays for various reasons on the HKG route either out of LAX or DFW are out of control. Think I will go for DM + on CX and renounce my CK with AA. Can't operationally cope. 95% of my biz is to HKG.

Think of all the extra time you can spend at the QF F Lounge

I feel your pain. 6/1 AA 126 from HKG to DFW departure scheduled for 2:30 PM delayed to 7AM on 6/2. In their defense, they were looking for options form me on CX and JAL but nothing worked. Even looked at going back through LHR (I am starting in Singapore). To add insult to injury, there was no first available for the DFW-RDU portion so am in coach for that leg.
