It appears that for many days, A, D and C inventories have come back, although it seems that all of those inventories are being strictly controlled. Probably good news that CX is not doing a blanket ban on lower premium fare buckets out of vietnam

Fly Air Macau to DAD/HAN only cost 75USD (600MOP) One Way. Macau airport is 45 mins drive or 1-hour ferry from Hong Kong. A good/cheap option to position

CX is releasing C/D and A fares now! I can rebook for less than 200USD. Avail is little as you would expect.
Another note, anyone knows if these tickets allow name change?

People have been able to change before outbound is flown.

I only changed the inbound trip, JFK-HKG-HAN. Not sure if anyone tried to change their outbound.

Fare rules allow for historical fares if there is A/C/D/I space available. Otherwise fare difference.

I called HK headquarter three times already, they say this is a special case, so any changes means repricing.

Well I guess we'll find out in the other thread if those who changed get canceled. Although I do wonder if whoever you talked to was repeating a policy or what they thought was most logical.
