Played with this a bit, seems you can route pretty liberally such as PEK-HKG-NRT-LAX-CLT-BOS-DFW-PEK for around $1500. I wasn't able to easily get HKG on both the outbound and inbound.

Curiously, I can't seem to price this with connections on ITA. Works on Google Flights though.

May I know the sample date and details of flight? I can't find this combination in Google Flight. Thanks!

Google flights isn't pricing it out well, even when you manually put in connections under multiflight.
You can play around on AA's website though, or an OTA.

most dates dead, repricing to 1600 USD +.
Very limited availability at 1300 USD.

I dunno... Looking at aa.com at departures in mid to late March and returns in April, the $1300 seems to be widely available. The fare has some very specific date limitations, but I am not having a problem seeing availability.

is there a calendar search function?? or are you searching one date pair at a time?

I had been looking for something outbound around the last week of March, and return the second week of April. When I search a regular round trip on aa.com with dates of March 27 - April 9, the aa.com display shows results for the date requested as well as a few days on either side. Looking now for the outbound flight, I see a fare of $1299 available for the outbound on March 25, 26, 27, and 28. For the return, I see April 8, 9, and 10.

Couldn't get the Chinese site to give me anything better at any better price, so settled for 3/28 PEK-LAX return 4/25 LAX-HKG-PEK for $1417 each. Thanks, as this is just a few hundred more than the PE deals AA from HKG and SQ from BKK.

Nice to see this one is back, for some dates up to next March/April. The original fare expired on Oct 20, and I noticed a higher price
in the days following that, but it seems to have returned.
