I'm in a similar position to the OP, except my itinerary is all on JAL, on a business class award issued by QF (but I see that JAL sells the same itinerary on their website): HIJ 1645 – 1815 HND 1930...

Thanks for the responses! I do have a Cathay account and there's not redeemable award seats on my flights. Very few booked business seats at this stage though, so I'm hoping that bodes well.
