Just to kick start a wiki, with answers to frequent questions.
1. We're flying HND-NGO-HNL. NGO-HNL is booked in business class, but HND-NGO is in economy. Will we still get the baggage allowance as if we're flying business class the whole way?
2. We're flying HND-NGO-HNL. Will we have lounge access in HND?

Given you are HKG based, also note that most CX discounted fares won't earn anything at all, not even redeemable miles.

Study the earning charts carefully for especially CX and QF flights as I find a lot of their economy booking classes to have zero earnings.

That's good to know !
Do we have any anecdotal experiences as to what they offer in such cases? Cash compensation? Future travel vouchers?
Is there anything to be gained by pushing for a higher compensation or is it take it or leave it offer?

None of the above. I wouldn't worry too much about this. Just enjoy your flight.

Was there an equipment swap on my flight from JFK to NRT?
It's saying JL 003 does not have first class and the plane is a 773? But my class does say F. I found out when I was trying to look for the F menu for the flight on the JAL website?
On my Alaska confirmation it specifically says Japan Airlines 3

Yes. That SS7 icon is Sky Suite with F. I don't believe they operate the -300 on this or any mainland US route.

Then I googled JAL 773 and the first link on seatguru shows a 2 cabin 777. Cue the panic.
