Partner Award Blackout, HKG-SIN?
So I've done the search for a return C award, HKG-SIN on partners. AA gives me MH flights both ways and BA gives me CX outbound and MH return. What gives?

I don't know for AA, but BAEC now gives a much more restricted availability on CX than if you use Asia Miles.
This is quite recent (say a couple of months) and different from being unable to view availability for the coming week.
Difference in availability for regional flights is now stunning. Whether AA gets the same availability as BA or not, I don't know.

Hmm. worth a phone call. I was an EXP until they went revenue based; now am lowly general member. Stayed away from AA since then. I thought they fixed their website. I'll give it a shot.
