I'm sure it happens, but I can't remember hearing anything about it on FT.
Because of its polar routing, I don't think CX 831 is as susceptible to headwinds as the transpacific flights. As I'm sure you know, the LAX flights were subject to many technical stops this winter.

Don't think I've heard of any Polar route flights into HKG needing a tech stop - not CO, not AC, not UA, not CX. If it happens it will be an extremely rare event. Definitely not something that happens "regularly".
