The thing is, HKT is getting alone with different airline not just CX who is closely related to HKG, joining their team and sell air ticket inside the club.
They're now combining Credit card points, miles, and point card together as "the club"

But the whole point of FFPs is airlines will release seats to own/partner FFP for that it won't sell for cash for fear of cannibalisation. Non-airline loyalty programs (The Club, DBS iGo, Citi TYP and its ilk) don't have privileged access to seat inventory.

they sell tickets at a discount thru club points. more like using their loyalty program to subsidize for tickets. think as diners club or amex travel.
