CX award inventory

Hello folks:

Are there ways to look up CX award inventory for its own members without logging into Asian Miles? I lost my password and access to my old cell phone number (which was used to register with AM).

I have some Capital One points and am not sure if I should use them for CX or VS' ANA transpacific awards. Now that VS has joined SkyTeam, I am afraid that they may kill ANA awards at any time.

I have not used CX's AM awards at all. Do they allow a free stopover at HKG for awards such as SFO to BKK?

Thank you very much.

Good question, I usually just search day-by-day on Asia Miles. I am unsure if that is the most efficient way.. looking to hear feedback as well

What is the booking class for business seats per Asia Miles?
When I used Alaska miles to book CX's biz seats, the booking class was U.

On a oneworld multi-carrier award, yes. On a one-way or round-trip award, no.

Also U class, but the U class availability to CX members is not necessarily the same as the one to AS members.

Yes, you can book with free stopovers at HKG just using multi-city search.

SFO-oHKG-oBKK-xHKG-SFO or vice versa is not allowed, or did I misunderstand you?

Flight Awards Redemption - General Conditions
...
6. For the round-trip Flight Award (except the oneworld Multi-carrier Awards and HK Express), a maximum of 4 sectors are allowed with 1 stopover. A maximum of 2 sectors only is allowed in each direction, inbound and outbound.
...
7. d. In a 4-sector itinerary, the second sector destination point must be the stopover point and turnaround point (an open jaw at the turnaround point is permitted).

My bad
I must be thinking of pre-2019 version of the T&C, where two stopovers, two transfers or one-open-jaw was still permitted https://downloads.asiamiles.com/pdf/...ditions_EN.pdf . The itinerary I had in mind as valid was HKG-oSYD-oBNE-HKG.

Your post above correct, even with 2019 T&C https://web.archive.org/web/20180819...onditions.html . Both SFO-oHKG-oBKK-xHKG-SFO and HKG-oSYD-oBNE-HKG not valid now.

You can forget about any Business or First Class awards from any FFP for the foreseeable future as CX can fill the seats with revenue paying passengers. They were late in the game in reinstating their flights and even so today, you can still see many of their aircrafts parked at the far end of HKIA.
