The Highlights
Cathay Pacific is a member of the One World Alliance, which includes American Airlines, British Air, Qatar, and Qantas. They’re also partnered with Amex, Citi and Bonvoy for point transfers. What makes Cathay most attractive is they have the best search engine for international One World Alliance flights. Cathay also has a decent transfer value.
Here is a trick, though. American Airlines Awards' search engine leaves much to be desired. But if you have American points, you can usually call and book a One World Alliance flight. Cathay’s search engine can be a good guide as to what’s out there on One World. It might also be the best deal.
