CX has mostly stoppe offering awards from Europe a while ago, at least a month or 2.
Given the huge fares they now charge (like most airlines), awards seats have become very cheap for them.They'd rather have you pay over EUR6,000 than use miles accumulated at a cheap rate
As most pax to HKG HAVE to go there, they would rather lose a very few empty seats but get the hard cash.
Note that flying through HKG is risky as CX operates very few flights. They currently fly at most twice a week from FRA, and their schedule to other Asian destinations is als limited if you are a transit pax. Cause; HK zero-covid policy
